Shiplake College was proud to host a pre-season rugby Coachclass course at the end of August, run by the Wasps Community programme. The Coachclass saw 28 boys, across the U9-U13 age groups, come together over three days to learn some of the essential individual and team skills required to succeed in rugby. Amongst the clubs represented at the Coachclass were Beaconsfield RFC, Henley Hawks, Reading Abbey RFC and Wallingford RFC.
Ben Smiley, the Schools Programme Officer and Coachclass Organiser, said after the course: "Wasps have some very close ties with Shiplake College, and we were delighted to be able to run a Coachclass at the venue. The facilities, pitches and setting at the College are outstanding, and they contributed to create a fantastic environment in which to coach. Wasps would like to thank everyone at Shiplake College, in particular Neil Walne, for their help in getting this Coachclass up and running, and we hope to be able to run more coaching events at the College soon."
