At the same time it aims to \u00a0capture the magic of the\u00a0game and deliver a game that is fun to to play, enjoyable and stimulating to\u00a0coach and promotes open running rugby.<br \/>\nIn Wales we have a tradition of playing rugby with flair and guile. With the game\u00a0moving into the professional era back in 1995 there has been increased pressure\u00a0to produce players who are bigger, faster and stronger.<br \/>\nRunning with the ball, passing and having the ability to beat an opponent are the\u00a0Welsh way. In order for us to try and promote and develop these skills the\u00a0pathway has been adapted for our younger players. The rationale of the rugby\u00a0pathway is to aid the development of the player through their early years of\u00a0playing and to provide them with a progressive approach to their learning and\u00a0the skills of the game.<br \/>\nContesting the ball is introduced in a controlled environment at the age of ten\u00a0helping players to gain confidence in this area of the game. With these skills\u00a0being developed progressively at each age group it is hoped that young players\u00a0will be encouraged to stay within rugby and enjoy the benefits of the game.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Within the pathway there is also information for coaches to support them to\u00a0introduce and develop skills safely and effectively. The progressive nature of the\u00a0pathway will, it is hoped, assist the coach to deliver the skills of the game in a\u00a0progressive manner, without overloading them with too much information too\u00a0soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welsh Rugby Union\u2019s Rugby Pathway St Peters RFC Junior section observes the Welsh Rugby Union\u2019s Rugby Pathway.
