James Shanahan, Director of Rugby at Blackheath Rugby Club, shares his rugby journey and the challenges faced by the club. The club has ambitions to reach the Championship but is currently focused on being a top-four National One club. The landscape of rugby in England, particularly in the Championship, is uncertain due to financial constraints and the RFU's proposed funding. Blackheath has a diverse player pool and relies on recruitment and loan players to strengthen the squad. The club also supports players with job opportunities outside of rugby. The conversation covers various topics related to rugby coaching and player development. The main themes include the level of play in national leagues, player scouting and recruitment, coaching methods and progress, the unique challenges of coaching Cambridge University, and the experience of playing rugby in Italy. The conversation also touches on the best players the host has played with and against.
