The Rugby Coaching Manual - Rugby Unlocked and it's not Rocket Science

Being a ‘rugby coach’ will mean many things to many people and each coach will have a different agenda. Some will be working at a level where players’ improvement and development is of paramount importance, but there are many who will be judged on each Saturday’s result.
No coaching advice or instruction can satisfy all requirements all of the time, but there has to be a practical way of assisting coaches with vastly different needs - and the many in between who want results and player development to go hand-in-hand.
This book is an attempt to demystify the essentials of the game and present them in relatively simple language. A good coach needs to understand what the game is all about before he can have any meaningful impact on his players’ development. He must first understand the game himself then pass on awareness of what it all means to his team. Hopefully, this book will clear up certain misunderstandings in this complex game.
