The Passion Of Raleigh Youth Rugby

By Mattie Knight


More and more people are either participating in rugby as a sport, or watching it, both locally and internationally. There was a lot more interest drawn towards folks from all over the world recently as the World Cup was in action. This has become an exciting sport, and not many people can deny this. Players start playing from a young age, and this can be seen with Raleigh youth rugby.

The most important factor in improving skills in any team is by finding a good coach. Many retired players will tell you that working as a team is essential. There may be a couple of excellent players on the team, but one can't leave it up to one person to do all of the work.

One has to work as a team in this sport. One can't rely on one very good player to do the work. Everyone has to do their job. There are different positions involved as players move up towards the try line. Some players are fast, and others have more strength. Some are blessed with their kicking abilities and are good in the line out. All of this adds up to the team work.

There are always going to be risks involved when players are young and a good coach should know what is involved. Injuries are a major part of this sport. Players are involved in major tackles. There are big scrums and players will get injured over time. They have to learn about discipline so that they are stable.

Discipline is a very important part of the game. A game like this is known to get out of hand and become rough at times. It is important to focus on mental strength as well. Often, young players will allow their emotions to become the better of them, and this will affect their game.

A good coach will help players stay motivated. They will encourage them when they are doing well. However, they will also encourage them when they feel that the player is feeling despondent because they are not performing as they should. Of course, there are different styles of coaching methods available.

One would consider this a dangerous sport because of the contact involved and the fact that there is no protective head gear as some of the other closely related sports. However, there are certain rules that one has to stick to, which will tell one that it is something that is safe enough for youth to get involved in. For example, one is not allowed to tackle anyone in the air, or perform a high tackle. Players know they will be disciplined for this sort of thing.

Parents also need to be committed and encourage their children who are participating in the sport. It is obviously important because they may have to lift them to practice sessions. They have to wake up early in order to go to gym. It is also a healthy way of socializing with others.
