Should we have a group of coaches to go out and coach the coaches of the junior teams?

I've previously been involved in coaching at junior level and whilst I've got a lot of experience in the game, it's not easy to get the message over to kids who sometimes just want to roll in the mud. Most junior coaches are the dad of someone in the team/club and are doing it without much formal education in how to coach. That's not a recipe for improving players to such a standard they are ready to come under the wing of a professional club.

Thought we had good links with Kippax,Has something changed recently? We got 5 or 6 from kippax each of the last two times they had a decen u14's team.

Edgell, Simpson, Wroe, Spear, Dakeyne and think Lynch are all kippax u16s

Burtons x 2, Barton, Adamson, Anderson were alk kippax and signed in the same intake not too long ago.

The Half going to Cas looks very good.

Do you know why youngsters are being advised to stay away from us now? thought we'd addressed a lot of the issues we had a few years ago, though a lot of the very best do seem to go across the Pennines these days.

I've watched a fair bit of Scholarship and Academy the last few years and I'm surprised at a few of your releases, especially Stephens.

You're not the only club though, not by a long way. A family member who's represented England at Academy level whilst in year one has been released by Warrington at the end of year two and he's not the only one.

Someone on the Cas forum mentioned Danny Orr was joining our youth set up...Strange move for him , if true.

Anybody heard anything?

Not happening.

Cheers, thought it would be a strange career move for him.
