Beginners' Touch Rugby Coaching

Since we seem to have a wide variety of skill levels in TT, would anyone be interested in an EXTRA training session for absolute or near beginners?

things to learn would be:

• how to pass properly
• how to catch a rugby ball properly
• how to make a roll ball
• how to make a switch
• how to wrap (or loop)
• the basic drive
• basic field position in attack
• basic field position in defence

these are all things that all players should learn but we can do it at a slower pace.

i would come!

please also state when you would prefer the training sessions to be.

i would like to come too! just depending on when!
let me know!

i repeat: please tell me when you would like to have the sessions and I will try try and accomodate.

I would prefer on a Thursday. This because we have training on Tuesdays and Sundays, so a Thursday would be good for in-between.

i agree with sparty!

thursday will work for me until rugby training starts again. after that I will have to change it to another day (monday, wednesday, Friday or saturday)

Thursday is fab, though not tomorrow as I have a wine seminar

How about Saturday morning, underwater in Lake Garda?!

Otherwise I agree with Sparty, and we should always meet where we were last night, it was soooo easy to find.

But when does rugby training start again?

unfortunately on August 10th. bugger!

Hmm wednesday might be a good option, or maybe if the early part of tuesday just keeps at a beginner session before the really fast stuff starts at 7pm?

Forget wednesdays, the pain today is too much

Thursday better for a while

If you still want my services from the 10th on , we will probably have to change days anyway.

Otherwise you may well have to carry on regardless.

hang on..can't we do a session tomorrow? and then the following thursday until 10th at which point we can see if we have caught up or want to continue in another day? i would come tomorrow!

yes we can. will anyone else be coming tomorrow?

Good news is that Graham has passed on quite a lot of knowledge already to people like SteveNZ, Gus and Gideon so we can still keep the trainings going after 10th... if really required.

... but I think 2 sessions and most people have got the hang of it.

and of course there will always be th sundays at 11am followed by beer swilling at the chinese tower (my favourite part )

oops am sorry, i can't do tomorrow night after all promised a friend i'd help her move flats!

Sorry, wino at it again tomorrow night... but next week I'm here and I've blocked my calendar (and by then I hope to be running again!)
