2006 USA Rugby Coaching Clinic
Coaching Course and Player Camp to be held at RIT

NYS Rugby is hosting a USA Rugby Coaches Development Program (CDP) in Rochester, NY, March 4-5. The clinic will be held at Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT).

Annually one of the nation's largest Coaching Development sites, NYS Rugby is again providing the opportunity for its members to certify themselves as USA certified coaches.

In conjunction with the CDP, NYS Rugby will also host a Player Development Camp. Now in its second year, the player camp will be open to high school boys and girls and collegiate men and women. It will go through all the basic aspects of rugby along with the latest skills and laws from the international game. The clinic is suitable for both new and experienced high school and collegiate players.

As these two initiatives run in conjunction with one another, USA staff will utilize those attending the CDP as instructors, complementing their work in the classroom and placing coaches in a forum for immediate feedback on practical skills and teaching situations.

For those interested in signing up for the Coaching Accreditation Program, please use the information below.

Registration and additional information for the Player Development Camp is available on NYSRugby.org.
