Young rugby players can get their back row questions answered

Connacht Rugby Club & Community are inviting male and female youth players to join Paul Boyle and Sean Masterson, two Connacht back-row forwards, for a totalhealth Virtual ProZone session next week.

It takes place on Monday, March 1, from 7 to 7.30 p.m. via Zoom, with MC and former Irish international Gavin Duffy, a native of Ballina, asking the questions.

Paul and Sean will give an insight into playing in the back row and how to hone the skill sets associated with the position.

They will be looking at ball carrying, the breakdown (ruck), line-out and scrum, and identifying opportunities on both attack and defence in these areas.

This webinar is free and registration is now open here, would-be participants are encouraged to sign up sooner rather than later.
