Backing the Next Generation

Impressed with the professionalism and quality of his rugby knowledge and coaching experience & expertise, I engaged Broady to be the Coaching Director of Next Gen Rugby Coaching from the commencement of the company in 2012/13.

Since taking over the company in 2017, Broady has, with the assistance of an elite group of coaches, expanded the programs available to schools, clubs, coaches and players alike. Next Gen Rugby Coaching is now an incredible rugby resource that coaches of all levels can and should take advantage of in terms of specific and targeted programs; training session organisation and planning; game management & game strategies; game reviews and player reviews; grading and selection processes.

Mentorship Across Generations

Having been in the unique situation of being coached by Michael Broad and then having my eldest son coached by him as well, I wanted to show my appreciation and respect for the way he and Next Gen Rugby Coaching approached their coaching of young men and women, and their support of coach development. The critical setting of boundaries and the clear message that “Better people make Better rugby players” was the perfect fit for our relationship and support of Next Gen Rugby Coaching ideals and programs.
