THE PATHWAY TO
Rugby Excellence!
RUGBY COACHING IN SCHOOLS
Utilising the elite rugby experience of our Head Coach Nash Cohen, Accelerate Sports provide the delivery of periodised rugby programmes which can fall in line with the requirements of a term's curriculum as designated by the school or higher body.
​
All our rugby coaches are either level 2 / ERCA (or working towards) certified by the RFU, as well as holding advanced DBS certificates. We conduct player centric training sessions which are highly interactive in order to develop the highest level of understanding in the players we coach.
​
At Accelerate Sports, our approach to all sessions is rooted in APES principles: Active, Purposeful, Enjoyable, and Safe.
OUR RUGBY PROGRAMMES
Focusing on The RFU Rugby "Core Skills" — Running, Evasion, Handling, Kicking, and Tackling — our sessions emphasize the RFU Rugby "principles of play": Communication, Go Forward, Support, Continuity, Pressure, and Contest Possession. Through interactive skill zones, gameplay, one-on-one coaching, and diverse activities, we provide students with opportunities to learn, develop, and achieve.
​
Safety is our top priority. We teach the safe tackle and scrummaging through step-by-step skill zones and technical games, ensuring the protection of players from injuries and maintaining a secure environment.
THE RIGHT PATHWAY
For those players with high aspirations, the first step is to get onto a pathway. The right pathway will lead players to play with the best players, receiving the best coaching and learning about what it takes to be a professional sports person. Can you achieve success without being on a pathway - absolutely, but a pathway also gives you the best opportunity to develop as a player.
​
Our Head Coach is part of the coaching team at both London Broncos (part of the RFL pathway) and the ERDPP Middlesex County (part of the RFU Pathway) so we can assist with talent ID and pathway eligibility for both Rugby League and Rugby Union.
