The Fordham Rams attended a second clinic led by Luke Gross this morning, continuing to focus on the fundamentals of the game. Gross led drills that placed on emphasis on honing the most basic yet essential skills for a player, as well as when to use said skills. The drills were explained and demonstrated thoroughly, while also stressing player safety. The new scrum rules were also explained again, a boon for both Fordham players and coaches, as the new scrum procedure takes effect for the upcoming season. It was a great opportunity to interact with and learn from a player with extensive overseas rugby experience, as well as three World Cup squad appearances.
The team is now getting ready to go watch the Eagles take on Team Canada. For many, it is the first time watching a professional rugby match in person. It should be a fun opportunity, as well as a chance to see high level rugby that can be educational. And never let it be said that FURFC turned down an educational opportunity.
