Adhering to current government and RFU regulations, the players worked through a carousel style training session of 6 stations lasting 10 minutes each. This was achieved through good communication from the players and thorough organisation from the coaches.

Field title winning Head Coach, Jason Ford said, "It wasn’t easy to organise but we got there in the end. The boys have been chomping at the bit to get back and this was shown by having 50 responses within 2 hours of us saying we’d be starting training again, and this despite the current COVID-19 regulations".

Due to the numbers the decision has been made to split the units for the next two weeks with backs training on a Tuesday and forwards on a Thursday. Again the uptake has been huge and the coaches will have their work cut out.

Jim Pearce confirmed that 34-backs and 40-forward were already booked in for the next two weeks. "Having over 70-players is a great start to the season and long may it continue", the Specialist coach confirmed, "Social distancing is being adhered to, equipment use is being kept to a minimum but where used is being sterilised between use. We’re fortunate to have a large, very dedicated, coaching and support team, so we all muck in and make it work. The vibe from last season has continued and we hope it remains."
