@_AlexBPsych @CharlieFelix I think that’s a tough question to ask. There were some horrific ones years ago but it’s a contact sport where injuries are ‘a part of it’ and the risks are there. Unfortunately when training at the intensity I can imagine they are there is every chance something might happen

[Myles Stringer @Mylesstringer]

@Planet_PE Keep plan B as close to plan A as possible.
Doesn’t always work out this way and it’s about developing the standards, but ideally they should always bring kit and take part in some capacity.

[Myles Stringer @Mylesstringer]

@carmenbott More games. More ‘academies’. More high intensity situations that they are t ready for. Most kids are out into these situations because of their maturation and have limited training history

@RUGBY_STR_COACH Why do they all have to take their tops off?
This is all very strange!

[Myles Stringer @Mylesstringer]

@RichTidmarsh I agree Richard, however, it seems to be a culture within cricket and within this squad that they do this as a ‘pulse raiser’. I think whilst the majority of that squad is still involved it will be hard to change. I think it’s their ‘fun’ element, but odd as they are fully pro

@DocBrownLloyd That’s Sorrento

@AdamThompson33 @BenniesSport Outstanding mate!

Happy to be proven wrong. But sometimes increasing tackle height is a safety mechanism for tacklers. Reducing the height I think will most probably increase injuries to players going forwards.

RFU confirm waist high tackling for amateur rugby across England https://t.co/SuSmFL7Zu0

Bonkers! The majority of concussions I have seen in amateur & lower level rugby has come from head contact to knees/ hips. Very very rarely are they from high shoulder to chin! Insane rule!

@RUGBY_STR_COACH It’s not truly done until it’s completely done! Might as well push the limits!

[Myles Stringer @Mylesstringer]

@StuartMcMillan1 Interesting.
What type of athlete?
What stage of training?
What’s their level of training/ load response/ background.

Not sure we could look at progression until we know a bit more about the above.

[Myles Stringer @Mylesstringer]

@EatSleepTrain_ @ben_rosenblatt Love this.
The issue is when you’re close up and involved you often forget/ can’t tell who’s who.
Perceptive is brilliant but it’s the confidence to look back at it from a distance!

@RUGBY_STR_COACH 44cm with arm swing on a jump mat from an international Netballer.

@AlexFerentinos7 @PureSports01 It just does my head in.
Teach youth athletes how to warm up.
Give them the autonomy to run their own warm up - BOOM - Open and close the gate!
The muscle doesn’t work against a force therefore is not being stimulated in the necessary way to ‘warm up’

@CharlieStringer @OwenEastwood @russellearnshaw 😮

[Myles Stringer @Mylesstringer]

This is very cool. Live the environment created around it too!
