"God answers my prayers everywhere except on the golf-course."

Billy Graham

Visit to Twickenham

Stuart had a fascinating day at Twickenham in September. The RFU was staging an elite rugby department media open day.

The day included:

1. Observing fitness profiling of the England U20 squad, including speed, power and endurance;

2. Long term elite player profiling via the elite hub website;

, 3. Sports psychology for the national academy.
