Show Notes

In our series of session walkthroughs, Chris Sweetapple discusses with a game he renamed "hot rucks", which was a development of the Rugby Coach Weekly game, Snap-back ruck game.

We start by chatting about the season review process, including his club's "speed-dating" session to improve each team's understanding of the coming season.

In the walkthrough, we discuss:

  • How to set up the game.
  • Key factors for quick games.
  • How to coach effectively during the game.
  • Why he renamed the game "hot rucks"/
  • How you would change the game for different levels of player.
  • What were the main outcomes and how this made a difference to the season.
  • What ages this game would work for.
