2009 CAL RUGBY HIGH SCHOOL COACHES CAMP

DIRECTED BY CAL RUGBY HEAD COACH JACK CLARK

Dear High School Rugby Coach:

Please accept my personal invitation to join a gathering of committed rugby minds this summer at the inaugural CAL Rugby High School Coaches Camp.

High school students from all over the United States and abroad have developed their rugby skills over the previous 12 years of our camp's existence. This summer will be the first opportunity for coaches to benefit from a program designed especially for them.

Our three-day Coaches Camp is structured with a series of presentations covering diverse topics aimed at empowering the high school coach with information derived from what we have come to identify as our trade's best practices. The mission is to share the methods and systems which form the foundation of CAL Rugby with like-minded coaches who seek to better their knowledge base and improve this great game.

A wide range of topics are covered by our staff and distinguished guests in an unparalleled atmosphere to promote coaching success:

Sports Science:

• Sports Medicine
• Team Building
• Strength & Conditioning
• Speed, Agility and Quickness
• Game Analysis
• Player Welfare & Risk Management
• Seasonal Training Plans
• Training Design

Coaching:

• Positional Skill
• Unit Skill
• Attack
• Defense
• Restart
• Tactic & Strategy

Operations:

• Event & Gameday Management
• Equipment & Kit
• Team Management/Organization

Come and join us this summer.
