Women’S Regional Skills Development Sessions And Glasgow Girls’ Cluster Training

This weekend, players from across Scotland will be merging on Kirkcaldy and Glasgow to take part in a Skills Development Session.  The events aim to give players that are not part of the Scotland Women Performance system the opportunity to develop position-specific skills.  The sessions will be delivered by experienced coaches and some Pro-Players from Glasgow Warriors and Edinburgh Rugby will be there to support the coaches and pass on their experience.  All players must be aged 18+ years or have exception approval to participate in senior rugby.  There is no cost to players attending these events and  – they just need to get themselves there!  Players are welcome to participate as part of a team/club or as individuals.  For further details, please read on… Venue 1 – Glasgow University, Garscube Sports Complex, Maryhill Road, Glasgow, G20 0SPVenue 2 – Kirkcaldy RFC, Beveridge Park, Kirkcaldy, KY2 5WQ11.00 – Registration12.00 – Welcome12.15 – Specific Skills SessionForwards – Scrum & LineoutBacks – Passing & Running Lines, Kicking & Kick Receive Counter AttackAll – Key National Themes – Tackle & Ball Presentation13.45 – Break14.15 – Games – put skills into practice15.45 – Wrap-upIf you are interested in attending and have not already registered, please contact Car Stevenson, Rugby Development Manager (Women & Girls) on 07969 284168. Also, at the Glasgow event, there will be a Glasgow Girls’ Cluster Training taking place from 12.30 – 15.15.  This event is open to any girl aged 11-17 (P7-S6), whether they are experienced at rugby or this would be their first time.  Any girls can attend, as part of a club or school, or as an individual.  Attendance is free for all particiants.  The session is being organised and run by Lewis Naphausen, Girls’ Rugby Development Coordinator (Glasgow), so if you are interested in attending, or wish to hear about future events for the Glasgow Cluster, please contact him on 07769 345724.
