The best defence starts before the tackle. 🏉

Last week at Rugga Skills, our players focused on an important part of becoming smarter, more confident defenders, understanding where to be before the tackle happens.

Through positioning, communication and trust, players worked on protecting the right space, staying connected with teammates and making better defensive decisions as a unit.

Because great defence isn’t only about making the tackle. It’s about reading the game, understanding your role and making the right decision before contact even happens.

That’s the Rugga Skills difference: we don’t simply teach children rugby drills. We progressively develop the skills, habits and game understanding they need as they grow.

Choosing a school is one of the biggest decisions you’ll make for your child.

At Lighthouse Kids Academy, we believe children need more than just a place to learn — they need a place where they feel safe, loved, valued and encouraged to grow.

What makes us special?

A caring and nurturing environment
Learning that is engaging, meaningful and age-appropriate
We nurture every part of your child — academically, socially and emotionally
Encouraging creativity, curiosity and a love for learning
Small enough to know your child, big enough to help them grow
Individual attention and support

Because we don't just want children to succeed at school…

We want them to believe in themselves, discover their potential and become the best version of themselves.

When choosing rugby development for your child, skill matters but so does how those skills are taught. 🏉

At Rugga Skills Rugby Academy, we're not only focused on helping young players become better at rugby. We're focused on building confident, capable players through structured, age-appropriate development.

Last week, our sessions highlighted one of the standards behind that approach: safe rugby and good contact habits. Players worked on correct technique, body positioning and safe head placement, with coaches actively checking, coaching and correcting throughout the session.

Because confidence in contact shouldn't come from simply “being brave”. It comes from being properly prepared.

Whether your child is just starting their rugby journey or already playing and looking for additional skills development, Rugga Skills provides an environment where the fundamentals are deliberately built as they grow.

Better habits today. More confident rugby tomorrow. ❤️💙

TWO COACHES. TWO SPECIALITIES. ONE SERIOUS RUGBY CLINIC.

Let’s keep it simple…

If you’re a FORWARD — you probably think backs just stand around waiting for you to win them the ball.
If you’re a BACK — you probably think forwards are just there to make sure you don’t get your jersey dirty.

Good news… we’ve got both covered.

FORWARDS
Coached by Tiaan Henderson — renowned for his work with the big boys up front. Scrums, lineouts, breakdowns, physicality and the technical detail that separates being big from actually being a proper forward.

BACKLINE
Coached by Christo Henderson — specialist backline coaching focused on decision-making, running lines, handling, kicking, attacking shape and creating space.

No generic drills.
No standing in queues.
No “one session fits everyone.”

Just position-specific coaching from coaches who know their craft.

Forwards… come prove rugby really is won up front.
Backs… come prove someone still has to score the tries. 😉

FAST isn’t just talent. It’s trained.

Last week at Rugga Skills Rugby Academy, our focus was on speed development, helping players understand that speed is a skill that can be developed through the right technique, movement patterns and consistent coaching.

It’s not simply about asking children to “run faster.” It’s about teaching them how to accelerate more efficiently, move with confidence and use their speed effectively in the game.

That’s the Rugga Skills approach: build the foundations first, then keep developing them as the player grows.

Keep your eyes out for this week’s training plan 👀 A new focus is coming, and we’ll show you how it fits into the bigger player-development journey.

📍 Rugga Skills Rugby Academy is active in Mpumalanga, Gauteng, Limpopo and KwaZulu-Natal.
