The session was specifically aimed at first team coaches who coach in the Premiership, Championship, Regional Age Grade or Division One teams within the region.
The session was delivered by Gareth Baber, the Cardiff Blues backs and attack coach and Lee Jarvis, the Blues’ skills coach.
The theme of the evening was “Pace Position Pass” with this conveyed through the topics of handling, passing and decision making.
The Blues U18 were put through their paces by both coaches in what was an educational evening for all of the 45 coaches who attended from around the region.
Speaking of the event Jon Evans, WRU Coach Development Officer for the Blues region said: “This was a fantastic insight into how to a run a session with high intensity, while still being able to get all your key coaching points across.
“It also emphasised how important the use of conditioned games are to the development of the players.”
