How do I choose the right rugby coach in Northampton?
• Prioritise coaches with an RFU or WRU Level 2+ badge over a big playing CV • Check whether they'll work with a player and one parent watching, so you can back up the coaching at home • Ask what they'll do differently by position — a generic 'rugby' session isn't specific enough On CoachSpot you can filter by Northampton and by rugby, read reviews from other local families, and message a coach before booking a trial session.
