Most kickers lose it at the drop. Fix this first.

The ball drop controls everything that follows, your contact point, your strike, your direction.

Get this wrong and no amount of technique fixes it downstream.

Simple. Repeatable. Do this consistently and your kicking out of hand becomes automatic.๐ŸŽฏ

No excuses to switch off when the backdrop is that good.๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ

This is where we build the fundamentals.

What skill are you working on this week? ๐Ÿ‘‡

Do you actually know what youโ€™re doing before your foot hits the ball?

Most players rush straight to the strike.
We slow it down, visualise the process , own the ball drop, keep the head down through contact. Then the run-up earns its place.

Consistency is key ๐Ÿ”

Want to know what actually makes a player harder to stop? ๐Ÿ›‘

Most players focus on speed, but balance is one of the key pillars of good footwork, and balance starts with single leg strength.

Build that foundation, and the movement takes care of itself.

What separates the good from the great?๐ŸŽฏ

Every rep. Every session. Every time.
The work doesnโ€™t care how you feel today. ๐Ÿ”

Skillslab we teach discipline and consistency ๐Ÿ•ฐ๏ธ

When last did you actually back yourself in a 1v1?๐Ÿ‘€

This is what it looks like when young players stop thinking and start expressing themselves.๐ŸŒช๏ธ

Train it. Then Feel it. Then own it.

Most players never train what they canโ€™t see.๐Ÿ˜Ž

Close your eyes. Now move.

Thatโ€™s proprioception, your body learning footwork through feel and reaction, not just vision.๐Ÿ‘€

When the eyes are open in a game, the feet already know what to do.
Try it. ๐Ÿ‘ฃ

I scored this try in the URC using the swerve. ๐Ÿซฐ
Most defenders never see it coming.

Watch till the end โ€” Iโ€™ll break it down step by step.

The swerve works because youโ€™re not stepping away from the defender. Youโ€™re leaning into them and driving your outside leg over. By the time they react, youโ€™re already gone.

This is the drill I designed to teach beginners exactly that.

๐Ÿ” Save this for your next training session.

The ball doesnโ€™t create space. You do.๐ŸŽฏ

Most players are standing flat, waiting to catch โ€” and by the time it hits their hands, the defense is already on them. Game over before it started. ๐Ÿšซ

Two phases. One drill. Zero excuses.
๐Ÿ‘Ÿ Step before the ball โ€” create the space.
๐Ÿ‘Ÿ Step with the ball โ€” own the moment you catch it.

Think youโ€™ve got it? ๐ŸŽฏ
Film yourself doing both and DM me your clip.
Best one gets posted on my story. ๐Ÿ“ฒ๐Ÿ”ฅ

What if the best reps you ever take donโ€™t involve a ball?๐Ÿง

Your hands know what to do. Your feet know where to go. But does your mind?

Visualisation is one of the most overlooked tools in rugby. Before you ever touch a ball, your brain is already running the play, building the pattern, feeling the timing, rehearsing the catch and release.

Train your mind. Then train your hands. ๐Ÿง โžก๏ธ๐Ÿ‰
