The scheme has been designed, in conjunction with RFU Coach and Player Department, by Ronnie Heath and Martin Papworth of Createdevelopment who have been involved in developing similar resources within education. The scheme is player driven and encourages players aged six to 17 to self reflect and set their own targets for development using an online resource, which is monitored and negotiated with their club coaches, parents and teachers. The personal development of the player is of the greatest importance with technical and tactical development sitting alongside. The statements have been carefully graded with eight levels and incremental degrees of complexity. There is a good deal of flexibility within the scheme which enables clubs to provide their own awards in addition to the more detailed criteria of the RFU Award.<br> <br> The clubs involved in the pilot are Gordano RFC, Burton RFC, Stourbridge RFC, and Bristol EPDG (Bronze group)<br> <br> The scheme will be monitored and evaluated over the next 18 months before being considered for national roll out. </span></p> </td> <td width=4 style='width:3.0pt;padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm'> <p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"'>&nbsp; <o:p></o:p></span></p> </td> <td width=210 valign=top style='width:157.5pt;padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm'> <p><span style='font-size:9.0pt'>&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class=MsoNormal><strong><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"'>Join the Rugby Runners Team!</span></strong><span style='font-size:9.0pt; font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"'> <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>The Injured Players Foundation is looking for members of the rugby family to join their teams in the Virgin London Marathon and Bupa London 10,000 races in 2012.
