Hellingly Mini Rugby
Registration Day Relaunch
​
Sunday 1st September saw the first day of the re-launch of the Hellingly RFC mini section. The sun shone and all was prepared.
We opened with a warmup and pitch familiarisation, before moving to numerous passing drills. An obstacle course gives the opportunity to add a bit of competition through a course that involves tackle avoidance, sprints and rapid passing and catching.
We looked at tagging and defence lines, before moving to attack and support play.
We ended with full tag game, with all the players scoring great tries.
We were left with lots of smiles and great feedback from the players and parents, and you can't ask for more than that.
We are both looking forward to seeing you next Sunday as we build our numbers.
Best Regards
Deri & Paul
