RLCM 'Everyday' Coaching Quote
"While skilled-based conditioning games have been suggested to simulate the movement patterns of rugby league matches, it is unclear whether they simulate the physiological demands of competition."

INDIVIDUAL COACHING
Written by Ashley Bradnam
The Rugby League player is a peculiar breed. There is no concrete
formula that dictates the attributes compulsory for achievement.
Just like motor vehicles, the Rugby League player comes in different
shapes and sizes some in the vein of an Italian sports car;
sparkling to the eye, diminutive and evasive, while others are more
reminiscent of an old tireless bulldozer; they don't look flash,
they don't go fast, but you can bet your last dollar they'll go hard all day and get the job done.
With such a broad disparity between individual players' sizes,
shapes, skill levels, interests, temperaments and natural abilities,
it is essential a coach recognises and instates diverse coaching
techniques designed to reflect his team's eclectic make up.
Most coaches today ensure their weekly timetable includes drills
which are position related; eg forward and backs, or wingers and
fullback, back-rowers, halves (including lock and hooker).
In this edition of RLCM Brisbane Broncos junior development coach John
Dixon reveals Wayne Bennett also embraces this style.
Canberra coach Matthew Elliott also agrees. `Take your hooker,
halfback and five-eighth for example' Elliott says. "These guys
are obviously key members of your team because they touch the ball
more than any other player out there, so it's obviously important
that they develop a good combination.
"Having said that there is no one way you go about coaching it is
different players have different strengths and weaknesses and you
have to take this into account and then build these variations into
your overall structure".
While performing such drills, the astute coach should also be
devising strategies aimed at working out what his team's mode of
playing should be.
Former Brisbane Easts front-rower Shane McNally now coach of Wakefield in the English Super League, believes position specific training can be a valuable asset in your team's overall make up.
"If you keep a keen eye on what happens in specific drills, particularly in defence, you can rectify problems which would have been glaring deficiencies.
"Things like pairing players on one particular side of the ruck to
compensate for, say, a problem with one tackling on the left side for
example, it's a lot easier to recognise and rectify these problems when you get them working together.
"And it also helps build a sense of teamwork and also personal
confidence within the player'.
Coaching is largely about experimentation. What works for one team
won't necessarily work for yours because your personnel is
different.
Focusing on your team's strengths and building confidence within
the club is easier said than done, but remains essential to the
ultimate accomplishments that can be attained.
Matthew Elliott says `What you really have to do is forget about
the other sides and have a real good look at what you have on your
playing roster.
"Assess their abilities and then from that work out the style of football you are best suited to playing.
"I believe in Rugby League everything is circular; just because a certain way of playing has changed doesn't mean to say it won't come back again. At the moment we seem to be concentrating on the physical prowess and......... MORE

IF YOU ARE SERIOUS ABOUT COACHING YOUR CLUB SHOULD HAVE RLCM BOOKS.
VIDEO ANALYSIS - Don't be left behind in 2004.
Is your coach using video recorders and the remote control to analysise player performance?
Don't wait until the season starts to ask questions, get your CEO to do it now.
Enquire about the new analysis system that Rugby League clubs in the northern and southern hemispheres have been purchasing since mid 2003 and tutoring their coaching staff in preparation for the coming season.
Sports Performer Video Analysis System
Professional clubs and their coaches have been using analysis systems for some years, these systems have been expensive.
Others have information supplied through an analysis consultants, invariably either alot of irrelevant or not specific details. This method is also expensive.
Sports Performer is the the 'new kid on the block' it is affordable and an uncomplicated analysis system.
The technology and development of Sports Performer is ongoing. The system is developed by Rugby League coaches and is specific to the our game.
