"The 1 to 1 sessions have been hugely beneficial toward the development of my skills. There have been constant tweaking and tuning to refine my technique. Without this, I would not have developed in the same way over the past 4 years or had success to the same level."

"Small group training has helped me as a player to refine the smaller and super important details of my skills. This included the nitty gritty ball handling skills such as thinking about my hand placement to catch the balls, Which leg to lead with on my catch and pass to body shape to create a solid scrum position,"

"The one-to-one sessions have meant that I have been able to focus on my individual needs as a rugby player – to look at my strengths and weaknesses and focus on my technical development. HGSD have empowered me as a player – mentally and physically, and helped build my confidence on and off the pitch. I was encouraged to try as a flanker for county – this is my most favourable position and where I thrive, so being given the opportunity to play here and develop my skills as a flanker has been incredible."

"1 to 1s have helped me to improve my confidence and allowed me to work on my individual skills which have improved my overall performance. I have thoroughly enjoyed the 1 to 1 sessions"

"The sessions have helped me massively technically but also helped me get through tough times within my journey.. Garry creates a chilled learning environment and has supported me every step of the way. His approach makes me excited for the sessions. Within the the sessions Garry finds a way to make everything easier and often goes out of his way to ensure I get through the toughest Challenges, for example at times when I was struggling with fitness Garry would run with me and help me push myself past my limits."

“The one to ones with HGSD were brilliant and really helped me focus on my core rugby skills such as accurate fast flat passing off both sides."

"The sessions helped me massively to develop my skills to a point that allows me to play at a high level, and be confident whilst doing so. When I first started with HomeGrown Sports Development the sessions helped me get over and excel past a major injury. The sessions were a huge help in getting my enthusiasm to play and confidence back and I would not have developed the same way as a player without them." Copy Copy Copy
