The aims of this rugby running session are to improve general fitness, agility, speed and endurance.
What will you need to coach this session? - Balls, Cones and lots of energy!
Through the course of this gruelling interval session your players will practice making darting runs, convincing dummy moves and running with the ball in hand.
What sets this session apart from just any old fitness session is its focus on position play. Your players will be running with purpose, visualising how their runs in training will be implemented in a game situation whilst also concentrating on improving their change of pace and turning at speed.
