Another positive evening of @WTrinityRL u16’s outreach player and coach development. This one was a special one for me personally being able to go back to where it all began for me as both a player and a coach to support the next wave of young prospects at @StanningleyRLC

Coach Education is an area that we at @WTrinityRL are looking to put a lot of emphasis on in 2025. It was great to offer the opportunity to community coaches to observe and support the Scholarship session this morning.
