Author: Fandom Media April 28, 2026 Duration: 51:56

This isn’t just about rugby — it’s about raising better young people.


New Zealand Under 20s and pathways coach Kane Jury joins the Aotearoa Rugby Pod to explain how NZ develops its young athletes — and why parents and coaches play such a critical role in that journey.


From preparing for the Rugby Championship and World Championship to teaching life skills off the field, Jury shares why success at the highest level starts long before professional rugby.


This is a must-watch for anyone involved in youth sport.


In this episode:

  • Why coaching the person matters as much as the player
  • What parents get right — and wrong — in youth sport
  • How NZ aligns schools, U20s and the All Blacks
  • Preparing young athletes for pressure and setbacks
