Emphasis on Coaching

During my rugby, coaching career I have presented more than 100 coaching clinics to other coaches and players of different age groups and with different knowledge levels. I have also attended more than 150 coaching sessions presented by other professional coaches. In the past 22 years I have completed 33 rugby related courses and online exams. During the past 21 years I have only been coaching teams for 15 years but have also been coaching squads or academies in-between. During the past 11-years I have been blessed whereby many of my players achieved representative accolades, but during the past 7-years of coaching, my teams’ performances have surpassed all expectations. During the past six years of coaching I have been appointed as the head coach for a local universities’ Academy. I have also been appointed by SARU as an (IRB) World Rugby Coach Educator, for the past 7 years, since 2009. The greatest honours bestowed upon me in 2012, was when SARU invited me personally to attend the IRB Level 3 Coaching course. This nomination did not come from my Union but straight from SARU training office. The only person to be invited from SARU. There are only 60 coaches that have completed this course in S.A. to date. I was also 1 of 18 senior SARU/ IRB Trainer and Educator staff members that were invited to attend the SASCOC South African Coaching Framework regarding the Capacity Developer programme. And I was also invited as a delegate that represented SARU at the SASCOC LTPD & LTCD conference. (SASCOC) is South African Sports Confederation and Olympics Committee in 2012. I have also been blessed in filling numerous positions within the Valke/Falcons provincial/representative structures during the past 8 years I’m extremely enthusiastic and a contributor to the online network of rugby coaches that regularly features on a sport website and popular internet blogs where my open and honest and personable nature has helped form close links with coaches and players all over the rugby playing world. As rugby coach I am known as an all-round coach, as I never had the need to specialise in just one area of the game i.e. Just Forwards or Backs or Defensive patterns. Understanding every playing position is one of my coaching strengths. I have, throughout my coaching career coached entire teams or squads, hence my performance statistics to date. My average squad sizes have been 28 or more players per session.

By completing 33 rugby related courses certainly helped improve my knowledge but the courses that really made their mark and has

helped me achieve coaching results to date was all my (IRB) World Rugby coaching courses.

Understanding the skills it takes to play the game properly and clinically also helped form my career. Hence the demand I have had

from numerous coaching peers in helping them with technical coaching sessions and technical skills information. This is also a

contributing factor with many of my coaches’ LTCD paths to their extreme success that completed the range of (IRB) courses with

me as their educator and mentor. I have had the privilege educating more than 500 coaches within my region as well as country

wide dependant on SARU requests.

Understanding player demands and working on team strengths and weakness and building on them and making players understand

where rugby skills fit into the game and understand the tactical dimensions of the game before they are able to make intelligent

decisions are also some of my strengths.

One of my best features in the game is my management style. This includes administration and people management. I served on

every board or management committee of every institution that I was involved with.

Being in a team sport and being a team player is also one of my strengths. This with management and with all coaching peers.

I also believe that I have mastered and understand the following key components making a good coach.

Coaching Skills – how to get the best out of players

Technical – teaching the skills required to play

Tactical – instilling an understanding of the game

Psychological – assisting players to be mentally prepared for rugby & life skills

Physical & Lifestyle – assisting players to be physically prepared for rugby & life skills

One other strength in my abilities is, understanding the individuals needs in Strength and conditioning.

I am totally results driven and have a passion for success and energy to reach a common organisational goal. I am a firm believer in

integrity, leadership & moral values. I am also autonomous and self -managed and I possess strong organisational skills.

Skills & Strengths

Additional Skill

I am well versed in most Microsoft products such as Word, Outlook and, Power Point as well other collaboration products and to a lesser degree Excel and I have a strong background in presenting information to all types of audiences. I have used a number of applications on the field using a Samsung Galaxy Tab device including coaching products; such as Sport Planner, and video capture products, such as Coaches Eye, and have a good all round knowledge of the latest applications available to grass roots and development centre coaches.

Self Education

I am a firm believer in self-education. By completing all the listed rugby & rugby related courses formed me in the coach and

educator I am today. By understanding the core essence of coaching has helped me achieve the results during my coaching career.

This in turn has also benefitted many of my peers whom I have shared my information with and who in turn also became successful

coaches. All my (IRB) World Rugby accredited coaches are evidence thereof.

My personal belief is that if a coach stop learning this ever evolving game the coach should consider ending his or her coaching

career.

By self-educating the coach will have the ability to coach players the latest rugby rules and all the newest trends. And with this the

latest information regarding players’ safety will be gleaned.

And as a CSCS this has formed me as a rugby coach to understand the body mechanics and periodization of a player and team.

Self-education is the key to success for every coach irrespective of sport.

SEVENS Matches coached during 6-years In 2001 I attended

a Sevens coaching

course by the

outgoing Sevens

Springbok coach

Deon Oosthuizen.

Sevens was not

played much at

any level I was

involved in until

2003

This is the year I

was introduced to

the game and I

was fortunate to

immediately

understand the

basics of the

sevens game.

In my first

tournament as

coach my lads

achieved a semi-

final berth for the

Cup final of the

Valke Regional

tournament and

three of my lads

were selected to

play

representative

rugby at the

National

championships.

Thereafter

whichever team I

coached had

success in

tournaments we

played in.

As coach I had

teams participate

in 13 tournaments

and from these we

played in 11 cup

finals and won 7 of

these.

The happiest

moment in my

Educating career

is that in 2014

three of my

coaches were

selected as coaches

for the Valke

representative side

and they won the

Bowl final in their

first year coaching

at this level.

In total I had 6 of

my lads achieve

representative

accolades playing

in the National

Championships.

season 2014 with predominantly under-17 lads in an Under-19 league

During the past 7-years; 2007 8 of my players played at the SASS Under-18 Craven Week and played against the SASS Under-18 S.A. National team. (Sasolburg Invitational Under-18 team) 2 of my players played at the SASS Under-16 Craven Week and played against the SASS Under-16 S.A. National team. (Sasolburg Invitational Under-16 team) 7 of my players played for the Sasolburg Regional Under-19 team. 2008 6 of my players played for the VALKE Academy Under-18 Craven Week team. Of these players that played representative rugby only one has played rugby before they joined me in 2005. 1 of my players played at the National PUKKE Under-19 Craven Week. 3 of my players are in the VALKE Curry Cup Under-19 squad. Two of these players are in the starting 22. None of these representative players have ever played rugby before they joined me in 2005. 5 of my players represented the VALKE South Under-19 team. Therefore in total, 10 of my players played VALKE (Provincial/State) representative rugby in 2008. And only two of these players have played rugby before they joined me in 2005. 2009 This year had more success where 20 of my 25 Academy players played representative rugby 2 of my players played Valke Currie Cup Under-19 2 of my players played Amateur Under-21 16 of my players played Amateur Under-19 (3 of these Players were still U-18) Two additional players did receive call-up to the Valke Currie Cup team but due to work obligations had to withdraw. 2010/2011 7 of my players went on to play Curry Cup representative rugby at Under-19 & Under-21 level. 2012 The greatest honour was bestowed upon me when I received a personal invitation directly from SARU training department to attend the IRB Level 3 coaching course. My nomination did not come from my Union but straight from SARU. This means I am 1 of 45 handpicked South African coaches that started this Level 3 course. Secondly I was personally nominated through SARU to attend a SASCOC workshop as 1 of 18 delegates to attend the important workshop with all the top IRB Trainers and SARU staff throughout South Africa. The workshops framework was; South African Coaching Framework regarding the Capacity Developer programme. And I was also invited as a delegate that represented SARU at the SASCOC LTPD & LTCD conference. (SASCOC) is South African Sports Confederation and Olympic Committee. 3 of my High Performance players played in the regional Under-18 Bokkie team this year. 2013 3 of my players were members of the Valke Under-21 Currie Cup team I was also the Head of coaching for Women’s rugby at the Valke rugby Union. I was also the head coach for the Women’s Currie Cup team. I was one of only 30 South African Coaches that completed the first ever IRB Level 3 coaching course. 2014 This was another trying year coaching at a small school that has rugby as a minor priority. But the lads outperformed all expectations as we only had 4 Grade 12’s in the squad. The rest were made up of grade 11’s & 10’s. They beat teams that the records shows have not been achieved in the past three to five years. We at least had a 80% win rate. In 2013 the first team won 2 from 10 matches played. This year that I coached them they won 8 from 10. 3 lads achieved the Lions Invitational team in 2015 and two are still in grade 11
