For Coaches

The new pathway has been developed to support clubs and schools to work towards three linked aims:

Aims

• Start – To give more people the chance to participate in rugby.
• Stay – To retain more people in our game by improving their experiences.
• Succeed – To support more people to achieve their potential whether at club, school, age-grade, professional or international level.

Coaching is central to developing, sustaining and increasing participation in rugby union as well as improving performance at all levels. Scottish Rugby is committed to developing a quality game by providing a coach development service to support member clubs and schools in their development of coaches.
