Here’s what our Specialist Skills Families have to say

"Just to say how much my son enjoyed your skills training. He loves his rugby but especially enjoyed your coaching. He learned a lot from your coaching style, took it on board and is seeing massive improvements. He had never really been taught how to kick properly."

— Julie Ann, S2 Parent
"My son (11) went to the 4 week one hour player performance training with Murdo specifically to help him develop his scrum half skills. He had a great time and we will either do this again or one of the camps. All coaches are approachable and great with the kids! Would definitely recommend."

— Lucy, P7 Parent
"My son recently completed a Specialist Skills Block with Accelerate Rugby. He felt the coaching/instruction was really good and can’t wait to get onto the pitch to use the skills. I have always found Accelerate Rugby to be a great standard both for the players but also the communication with parents."

— Bill, S3 Parent
