Course reviews
Laurie Malaesilia AustraliaAwesome stuff on fundamentals Wes!
Thomas McNeil USALove it. Great fundamentals for any level of play for men and women. Clearly explained and illustrated. Thank you!
gerhard moerdyk New Zealand@3.28, loved Wesley’s ‘permission to fail’. This is perhaps the best explanation of the ‘tricep punch out’ passing revolution that I’ve seen.
Padraic J McDonough USAVery good teaching really gives newer coaches the idea of what we should be doing at training, teaching the game!
Maurits Bruns AustraliaGreat Drill. Also teaches draw and pass, decision making, reaction time, running at pace and communication. Wesley’s questioning of the players is great and makes the girls accountable.
Ruben Francisco Acevedo Argentinaexcelente!! Muchisimas Gracias
Carter Croft EnglandI use this drill regularly, you can develop this to do all your passing skills, using large numbers.
Amy Ruddock USAReally good breakdown of basic skills. As a US university coach who is constantly getting players new to the game I would like to have more videos of Wesley Clarke on the site.
Delme Bennett Great Britain & Northern IrelandGreat session. Clear and precise coaching points and good progression through the session. Can’t wait to try it on my u10 team at the weekend!
Aaron Callaghan New ZealandThanks Wesley awesome sessions. Great clarity and attention to detail. Lot’s of great take aways not just on the what to coach but also how to coach. Would be great to see how Wesley builds on these fundamentals.
Tom Tamanivalu SwedenOutstanding stuff.Clear instructions,implementing them in our club training.
Greg Richmond AustraliaAs someone who is just starting to coach women’s rugby 7’s I found these videos very helpful. Any help with coaching women in particular in the 7’s game would be great.
Leo Owade AustraliaAwesome stuff, really awesome. Learnt a lot from it and looking forward to implementing them in my coaching.
Carrick Pell USAOutstanding instruction and very relevant to new players who are learning at any age.
Campbell CanadaGreat series of videos, nice to see the players being challenged via questioning. More videos from this coach would be very helpful.
Pioiva Sasa USAThank you coach. Great info.
rugbymaniac USAHi! Very good series. Just a quick comment about the tackler going back on his/her legs, new law forces him/her to enter through the gate like any other defensive player.
Stacye keelan New ZealandNice. Real simple.
hector daniel oscanio ArgentinaLO QUE PUEDO VER ESTA BUENO NO PUEDO TRADUCIR AL CASTELLANO
Paddy Gough New ZealandInteresting insights from a great coach. I’ ve got an enduring memory of Wes composure on the sideline during womens national finals. Professional.
Teofilo Sibileau ArgentinaSpot on. Thank you very much for these!
Hamish Webb EnglandIf you have two coaches. One does attack one does defence. Great for 7’s
Tai Taimataora New ZealandNice work Wesley
Bryan Murphy USAExcellent progressive skills. I love the way it is broken down and presented
David Chapman IrelandSuperb articulation of how, why and the impact of real basics. Can be used well in all levels mens and womens.
Bertus Mulder New Zealanda basic skill coached very well. would like to see more coaching sessions from this coach.
