Any other teachers out there looking for any guidance? We estimate approximately over 500 schools have introduced Rookie Rugby to their PE classes in the last 6 months. Clearly, there's still may more to join in but we have not yet had any negative feedback. Use the games, don't worry too much about the rules initially, and as Dom says "drip feed" them in over a few weeks. For anyone in / around NYC for June 5th - come by the Mayor's CUp and watch 50 youth teams from 6 yrs - High School compete in the biggest Urban Youth Rugby Festival in the country!

Kudos what Dom said about the students learning and your effort to expose them to new, 'non-traditional' activities. Sadly, that is the challenge these days with budgets/staff being cut and gym class sized growing in numbers; the managment alone becomes such a burden.

Truly appreciate teachers like yourself with the enthusiasm to expand their own toolbox of things to how the kids. Keep it up!!!
