TWO COACHES. TWO SPECIALITIES. ONE SERIOUS RUGBY CLINIC.

Let’s keep it simple…

If you’re a FORWARD — you probably think backs just stand around waiting for you to win them the ball.
If you’re a BACK — you probably think forwards are just there to make sure you don’t get your jersey dirty.

Good news… we’ve got both covered.

FORWARDS
Coached by Tiaan Henderson — renowned for his work with the big boys up front. Scrums, lineouts, breakdowns, physicality and the technical detail that separates being big from actually being a proper forward.

BACKLINE
Coached by Christo Henderson — specialist backline coaching focused on decision-making, running lines, handling, kicking, attacking shape and creating space.

No generic drills.
No standing in queues.
No “one session fits everyone.”

Just position-specific coaching from coaches who know their craft.

Forwards… come prove rugby really is won up front.
Backs… come prove someone still has to score the tries. 😉

FAST isn’t just talent. It’s trained.

Last week at Rugga Skills Rugby Academy, our focus was on speed development, helping players understand that speed is a skill that can be developed through the right technique, movement patterns and consistent coaching.

It’s not simply about asking children to “run faster.” It’s about teaching them how to accelerate more efficiently, move with confidence and use their speed effectively in the game.

That’s the Rugga Skills approach: build the foundations first, then keep developing them as the player grows.

Keep your eyes out for this week’s training plan 👀 A new focus is coming, and we’ll show you how it fits into the bigger player-development journey.

📍 Rugga Skills Rugby Academy is active in Mpumalanga, Gauteng, Limpopo and KwaZulu-Natal.

Great players don't just run... they decide.

At Rugga Skills Rugby Academy, we believe rugby intelligence starts long before competitive matches. That's why our players don't simply learn drills, they learn to read the game, solve problems, and make confident decisions in real time.

Through fun, game-based coaching, children develop the confidence to recognise space, support teammates, and choose the right option under pressure. It's a skill that benefits them on the rugby field and in everyday life.

Whether your child is taking their very first steps into rugby or looking to build a stronger foundation, Rugga Skills provides an environment where confidence, teamwork and decision-making grow together.

📍 Margate, Ramsgate, Hibberdene, Amanzimtoti and Durban North
🏉 Ages 3–18
✅ Fun • Fundamentals • Fluency

Great breakdown players are built, one skill at a time.

This week at Rugga Skills, our focus is on developing the foundations of effective breakdown play. From awareness and body position to jackal and clear-out skills, each stage builds on the one before it.

We don't rush development. We build the right habits progressively, helping young players grow in confidence, technique and decision-making as their game develops.

One skill at a time. One year at a time.

📍 Mpumalanga, Gauteng, Limpopo and KwaZulu-Natal.
