A selection of interesting comments made, in response to 'What could be changed about Rugbytots?'

  • “More classes after school please”
  • “Nothing. It is great. Thomas has really taken to Rugby in a way football did not. Very pleased with the classes”
  • “Where possible make it a bit more rugby-related! My two-year-old is obsessed and would love full contact, but you know!!”
  • “Nothing at the moment but as time moves on maybe some passing of the ball whilst moving, kids love it though – coaches are incredible”
  • “Continue to keep classes small for the younger kids, no more than 10”
  • “I'm not sure if there is anything to change. The colours and shapes session are not directly rugby related but I can see that they develop listening and reaction skills which are important to the children learning to take direction from the coach. The attitude and energy of the coach are all important and in our class they really are excellent”
  • “nothing really, it is a varied a fun session, promoting team work.”
  • “nothing really - my daughter loves it so it must be good :)”
  • “It appears the Rugbytots coaches have been trained to a very high standard. Our coach XXXX controls the class so well, we just do not know how he does it”
  • “Not really, Josh loves it. Delighted to see the partnership with Premiership clubs, hopefully next on your list will be Wasps, might help us win something in the future!”
