Rugby
In this video I sit down with Craig Stewart — a New Zealand rugby coach currently working as a skills coach with the Kobe Steelers in Japan's Top League.
Craig shares a wealth of knowledge that applies at every level of the game, from professional rugby right down to your local club side.
We cover:
What makes a great coach
Building a training environment players want to come back to
The offload — what's really happening pre and post contact
Scanning and decision making
Why Craig believes we need to stop obsessing over perfect technique
What's being undercoached at every level of the game

Whether you're a school coach, club coach or just love the game — there's something in here for you.
