It will help game coaches to perform their role, by offering guidance in the following areas: . coaching players as the game is being played; . encouraging best practice; . correcting poor practice; . providing feedback; . ensuring players respect the laws and officials; . allowing the game to flow with fewer stoppages; . build the confidence of players in an enjoyable and challenging environment. Aim of game coaching: The difference between managing game activity against coaching through a game “During the early stages of participation, with an emphasis on playful activities, the coaches’ role is mainly to act as a ‘resource person’ who can modify the environment or supply directive feedback and instructions in order to quickly correct errors” (Ian Stafford, coaching children in sport, 2011, Routledge).

The WRU accepted vicarious liability for the referee of the day, Mr David Evans, (rather ironically a practising solicitor, specialising in personal injury), for the injuries received by Mr Vowles. It was the first case in which an amateur referee in any sport has been held liable in the context of an adult amateur game. The facts of the case were that there was an injury to the Llanharan Second XV, (Mr Vowles’s team), loose-head prop 2, in the thirtieth minute of the game, necessitating a replacement prop forward. There was no suitably experienced/qualified player to replace the injured loose-head prop and so Christopher Jones acted as replacement.

  • A Report by Paul Myners Into the Salary Cap Regulations and Processes of Premiership Rugby
    A REPORT BY PAUL MYNERS INTO THE SALARY CAP REGULATIONS AND PROCESSES OF PREMIERSHIP RUGBY MAY 2020 1. INTRODUCTION “This whole affair has done huge damage to our sport. We as the rugby community have always prided ourselves on our ethical code of conduct (perhaps even a little ‘holier than thou’). But this affair has dragged the sport and its reputation into the gutter, with non-rugby fans seeing us all in the same boat.” – Premiership club supporter, responding to the Myners Review consultation. Rugby has always prided itself on being different. Rugby football first defined itself by its differences from the other forms of Victorian football; rugby union defined itself by its rejection of professionalism; when it finally did become professional, rugby clung on to its differentiation from other sports through respect for the authority of match officials and rejection of deceptive behaviour on the pitch. The ideas of fair play and the level playing field are crucial pillars in the construction of the sport’s self-image. How rugby integrated those ideas with the need to authorise the game and develop it professionally was always going to be a challenge requiring trust and co-operation from all parties. Indeed, it was the impetus in this direction that led to the imposition of a salary cap in 1999 when rugby’s special ethos made it an early adopter of financial regulation. Just before Christmas, I was asked to conduct a comprehensive review into the salary cap regulations “to ensure a continued level playing field for all clubs in the future”.

  • The Cricketers of Hampstead Hockey Club the First 20 Years; 1894 to 1914
    THE CRICKETERS OF Hampstead and HAMPSTEAD Westminster Hockey Club HOCKEY CLUB The Men of the Eyre Arms and the first 20 years 1894 to 1914 The Cricketers of Hampstead Hockey Club The first 20 years; 1894 to 1914 The Cricketers of Hampstead Hockey Club The first 20 years; 1894 to 1914 Written and Produced for Hampstead and Westminster Hockey Club 2015 by Ian Smith The Cricketers of Hampstead Hockey Club The first 20 years; 1894 to 1914 Note This account is an attempt to throw light, predominantly from a cricketing perspective, on the circumstances in which Hampstead Hockey Club evolved and the key individuals who oversaw its transformation from a hockey-playing section of Hampstead Cricket Club into a leading hockey club in England within a little more than a decade. It is certainly not intended as a record of the first twenty years of the club, as that has been covered more skilfully by club historian, Colin Greenhalgh. More is known of some of these individuals than others. The contents may therefore appear out of balance. Much is taken up with the exploits of Andrew Stoddart but without apology, as his was a remarkable sporting record that has remained virtually unparalleled and was a life that, like several of his sporting contemporaries, ended in tragic circumstances. His story was itself recorded in part in his own albums of cuttings that were thought to be preparatory to a memoir. That never materialised but the contents were taken up by his biographer, David Frith, who felt compelled to write because “here was a wonderful cricketer who has been piteously neglected by historians”.
