Conditioning Coach Course
Please note that the Certified Coach Conditioning Course will not run in 2022. We will bring the course back in 2023.
The course is intended to help coaches gain the confidence and competence to condition and prepare players in a safe and enjoyable manner for the game of rugby.
The CCC is a practical hands-on course where you will see and practice the many strength and conditioning drills and exercises that are appropriate for the physical preparation of rugby players at all levels.
The course is enlightening and thought provoking… I thoroughly enjoyed the tutors contributions
Course Objectives
The course is intended to help you gain the confidence and competence to physically prepare the players in your charge in a safe and enjoyable manner for the game of rugby.

The course also serves as a strong networking opportunity to help you develop relationships with like-minded coaches that you can engage with throughout your career.
While there are theory based elements on the course, the course is primarily a practical, hands-on course where you will see and practice the many drills and exercises that are appropriate for conditioning rugby players at all levels.
