The OnPoint Masterclass: Master the Detail
In the modern game, the difference between "good" and "elite" is found in the technical "1%"ers. While team training focuses on collective strategy, our specialist rugby masterclasses are designed to dive deep into the specific mechanics of your role. Hosted in both Leamington Spa and Birmingham, these intensive sessions provide the professional-level coaching required to dominate your position.

Scrum Half
Master the Base: The Scrum Half Masterclass​
The Scrum-half is the heartbeat of any winning team. It is a role that requires a unique blend of technical perfection, physical fitness, and tactical intelligence.
​
Our Scrum-Half Masterclass is a deep-dive into the technical biomechanics and strategic thinking required to play at the highest level. Led by Sam (RFU Advanced Coach), this intensive session moves beyond the basics to focus on the "1%ers" that separate good players from elite ones.
​
What we cover:
-
The Power Pass: Refining the biomechanics of the spin pass for maximum speed and accuracy off both hands.
-
Speed to the Base: Footwork patterns and "re-load" techniques to ensure you are the first person at every breakdown.
-
The Triple Threat: Developing your ability to pass, snipe, or kick—keeping the opposition defense guessing.
-
Box Kicking & Tactical Exit: Mastering the technical height and hang-time of the box kick under pressure.
-
Game Management: Learning how to "scan" the field, talk to your forwards, and dictate the tempo of the match.
​​
Whether you are looking to secure your club’s starting jersey or eyeing representative honors, this masterclass provides the professional-level feedback you need to dominate from the base of the ruck.
Kicking
Precision & Power: The Technical Kicking Clinic
​
Kicking is one of the most technical aspects of rugby, where small adjustments in ball placement or follow-through make the difference between a match-winning strike and a missed opportunity.
​
Our Kicking Masterclass breaks down the art of the kick into repeatable, high-performance habits. Whether you are a dedicated goal-kicker or a playmaker looking to improve your tactical exit strategy, this session provides the professional-grade feedback usually reserved for elite academies.
​
What we cover:
-
Place Kicking Biomechanics: Master the "approach, strike, and follow-through" to increase your range and consistency from the tee.
-
Tactical Kicking in Play: Developing the "soft-touch" for grubbers, chips, and cross-field weighted kicks to unlock defenses.
-
The Exit Strategy: Improving punting and clearance techniques to find the corners and relieve pressure for your team.
-
The Science of Contact: Understanding ball flight, wind adjustment, and the "sweet spot" on the boot for maximum hang-time.
-
The Mental Game: Pre-kick routines and composure techniques to ensure accuracy when the clock is red and the pressure is on.
​​
This is a technical deep-dive designed to give you the drills and the confidence to become a genuine threat with the boot.
How it works:
The Masterclasses are blocked into 4 x 1 hour sessions which occur every two weeks. We have two locations operating: Birmingham Moseley RFC (Tuesdays at 5.00pm) and Leamington Spa (Wednesdays at 5.00pm).
​
It is recommended that you attend all four sessions (at one location) as each session builds on the last, moving from isolated technique to higher-pressure game-speed execution.
​
The two-week gap between sessions is intentional. It provides a "consolidation gap" where players have the time to take the technical "homework" from the masterclass and apply it during their school or club training sessions.
​
Sessions can be booked fully online, with only 10 spaces on each Masterclass. Book now whilst spaces are still available:​
Future Masterclasses:
Tackling Technique & Breakdown
Safety. Dominance. The Contest: Master the Modern Breakdown
​
Starting later in the year (dates TBC) we will be launching our Tackle Technique and Breakdown masterclass. With the evolving laws around tackle height and breakdown entry, technical precision is no longer optional, it’s a competitive necessity. This masterclass focuses on the "Contact Evolution," teaching players how to tackle with confidence and efficiency. We break down the Tackle Tech (footwork, body position, and head placement) and the Breakdown Contest (cleaning out, the "jackal" posture, and legal ball winning). Elevate your physical presence while ensuring your technique is safe and elite.
Speed Workshop
The First Three Steps: Explosive Speed for Rugby
​
Starting later in the year (dates TBC) we will be launching our Speed workshops. Speed is the ultimate game-changer, but "rugby speed" is about more than just running in a straight line. Our Speed Workshop is a high-performance intensive that translates track mechanics into match-day acceleration. We focus on Linear Speed (sprint mechanics and arm drive), Lateral Agility (evasive footwork and deceleration), and Explosive Power (the first three steps). Learn how to move faster, react quicker, and outpace the opposition when it matters most.
