Coaching Courses

We are looking for parents to get involved with their children’s rugby and are offering the chance for anyone interested in training to become a qualified coach.  If interested then please speak to Kenny.  Volunteers are always welcome to help out with the training sessions.  

Registration

Parents must complete the registration form to re-register their child for the 2009/2010 season.  Registration fee is £15 (£25 for 2 children) for the season and we ask that this be paid by 20^th September.  Please remember to come into the clubhouse at the beginning of each session so your child can be marked in the register. 

Gentle reminder

Every child must have a responsible adult with them whilst at training.  If you do have to leave for any reason please ensure that someone else is going to look after them and that your child knows who that is.  We need to be able to contact you in case of an incident.  For more information on health and safety please see the Junior Club Rules.

Parents Liaison Officer, 

     THE GOOD PARENT’S CODE:

Clubs and Schools should encourage Parents to:

(a) Be familiar with the coaching and training programme in order that they can ensure

their child is fully involved and the coaches are aware of their availability.

(b) Be familiar with the teaching and coaching methods used by observing the coaching

and training sessions in which their child participates.

(c) Be aware that the Club or School has a duty of care to ensure the safety of players

and therefore, where appropriate, assist coaches with the supervision of the players,

particularly where numbers are large and there is a need to transport players to away

games.

(d) Be involved with Club and School activities and share their expertise.

(e) Share concerns, if they have them, with Club or School officials.

(f) Be familiar with the Good Coaches’ Code contained in the Rugby Continuum. In

particular be aware that:

(1) coaches should recognise the importance of fun and

enjoyment when coaching players; and

(2) coaches should keep winning and losing in perspective,

encouraging players to behave with dignity in all

circumstances.

(g) Support coaches in instilling these virtues.

(h) Remember that young people play rugby for their own enjoyment not that of their

parents.

(i) Encourage young people to play - do not force them.

(j) Focus on the players’ efforts, rather than winning or losing.

(k) Be realistic about the players’ abilities; do not push them towards a level that they

are not capable of achieving.

(l) Provide positive verbal feedback both in training and during the game.

(m) Remember that persistent, negative messages will adversely affect the players’ and

referee’s performance and attitude.

(n) Always support the Club and School in their efforts to eradicate loud, coarse and

abusive behaviour from the game.

(o) Remember young people learn much by example.

(p) Always show appreciation of good play by all players both from their own Club or

School and the opposition.

(q) Respect decisions made by the match officials, even if they appear to make a

mistake, and encourage the players to do likewise.
