I have been a bit quiet recently, getting to grips with remote learning and welcoming a new addition to the family. But now starting to get back into it. Here is a plyo video I put together for the #DESCDailyworkout

A great little session you can adapt to whatever space you have available. Increase the repsor shorten the rest if it’s too easy.

Thanks Apollo! Was great fun. Never thought we would have 29 educators online then going into breakout rooms. Great creativity and contributions everyone!

Thanks to the tãRf for hosting the pilot for the Asia Rugby #ACTIVATE roll out. Great that so many UAE Rugby Federation educators bought in and were a great example for Asia. Based on feedback we are hoping to continue roll out next month. #keepimproving Gulf Youth Sport @yallarugby

Had an excellent few days delivering the World Rugby ACTIVATE programme to PhilippineVolcanoes™ with 28 participants, 6 educators and 3 trainers. Well done everyone that participated. Also ran the course in 3 languages with interpreters concurrently...distance learning technology?!

This week our members are being treated to an 'Inspiring Update' from Robin Giles as he talks about challenge and failure. It's a fantastic read and massively relevant to coaches at all levels. You can sign up for our 'Early Bird' membership now for just £89 for the year
