Reeds aims to develop the core skills

of all players, providing them with the opportunity
to perform and excel. Through this ongoing process the level of performance
can improve and provide greater consistency in res
ults.
Reeds rugby coaches feel it is
vital that pupils
learn both how to deal with setbacks in
defeat and also how to win with grace. By
being part of a team boys develop attributes
such as: self-discipline, respect, communication skil
ls, leadership, honesty, courage, hard-work
and team-work. These characteristics will help the
m to achieve success, whatever path they
choose beyond school.
Coaching at Reed's is
led by a number of qualied coaches, with three ho
lding the RFU
Level 3 qualication. In addition, Reeds School has
become an RFU Accredited Training
Centre and regularly has guest coaches
from Harlequins RFC. We have strong links with
Harlequins and Esher RFC who provide guest coach
es. All students have Strength and
Conditioning training, delivered by
our own specialist coaches, Ben Haining and Jason
Ellis-Woodley, included as part of their games

Reeds has also provided a number of county
and regional representatives in recent years
and we have a proud tradition of representation
for the Independent Schools Lambs
