Hugh de Lacy and Grant Fox — Think And Play Winning Rugby

HarperSports 2000 Paperback, 166pp. In the old days, brute force and swift running won rugby matches - now players need to be alert, multi-skilled and able to adapt as a game unfolds. Grant Fox, one of rugby's finest exponents of the thinking game, and Hugh de Lacy have written Think and Play Winning Rugby for players who want to play with skill, thought and subtlety. This book gives them a head start, explaining how to set goals, develop strategies and visualize. They explain how to get the most out of training and overcome difficult weather, playing conditions and provocative opponents. Advice is offered for every position, with Grant Fox contributing a chapter on goal-kicking. (ISBN: 9781869503383). Good.
