Carnegie ‘Coach the Coaches Scheme’ comes to Hull

Leeds Rugby Foundation is delighted to announce its ‘Coach to Coaches’ scheme, which begins at Hull Ionians on the 11th February, starting at 6.30pm and finishing no later than 9pm. The initiative is particularly special because it is run by ex Lions Coach and Leeds Carnegie director of rugby Sir Ian McGeechan and Leeds Carnegie’s professional coaches. The key objective of ‘Coach the Coaches’ is to encourage junior coaches from around the country to improve their skills and knowledge of the game. Sir Ian McGeechan will begin the session with an indoor presentation that will run through the key theories surrounding basic fundamentals of rugby. The coaches will then be taken outside to practice what they have just learnt. To book your place at this Coach the Coaches session or if you require further information please email [email protected] by 5pm on Friday 8th February.
