It was absolutely fantastic to chat with international rugby coach, Alex Laybourne on this episode of The Coaching Arena.


Alex is Head Coach of Sweden Men's rugby team, having previously been Scotland's Women's u20s Head Coach.


This was a brilliant chat, with Alex giving his insights on :


  • The importance of a mentor in order for coaches to develop
  • Understanding the player
  • Connection with players and having open and honest dialogue
  • Winning is important but results do not define a good coach
  • Coaching in different environments
  • Standards not rules
  • Metrics to measure progress


I really hope you enjoy this chat as much as I did
