At the moment I do not know of any specific coaching resources related solely to 10's. I would look at Rugby 7 a side coaching and then adapt to the 10 a side game.

Some of the tactics are similar although there are some obvious differences e.g you can play with 2 sweepers etc.

If anyone else knows of some specfic resources please let me know.
