International coaches to host elite rugby camp

The Bermuda Rugby Football Union will host an Elite Rugby Camp for all youth players at the National Sports Centre on December 28-29.

Four high level coaches from America and Canada will be taking sessions on  both days.

A BRFU spokesman said in a press release: “With close to 90 international caps between them this is a tremendous opportunity to learn from international players who've played at some of the highest levels of the game.”

The coaches are Paul Emerick (USA, London Wasps, Ulster); Paul Homes (Director of Rugby with Tigers Rugby Academy, Columbus, Ohio);  Adam Kleeburger (Canada, London Scottish, Auckland, Rotherham Titans) and Tanya Ness (Canada, coach at Shawnigan Lake School).

Over the two days, the coaches will be going over key skills for rugby — catch and pass, defensive skills and unit play — all within 7's and 15's situations.
