We speak to Ben Lazenby, Head of Youth at Wakefield Trinity RLFC in this episode.

Focusing on game understanding we are going to cut to the root on how a player-centred approach might lead to a shared collective team cohesion.

The first question: Is a player-centred approach to game understanding just us waiting for the players to give us the right answer?

Previously, Ben was the Academy Pathway manager at Ealing Trailfinders, Academy General Manager at Hull Kingston Rovers, Yorkshire Carnegie academy manager. Plus had roles at Warrington Wolves and as a coach educator at Rugby Football League.

His philosophy is to fill the gaps and provide the players and staff with what they need through collaboration, openness, and detailed analysis.
