A group of talented players from King Edward VI Academy, Spilsby, and Skegness Grammar School took part in a training session with ex-England star Paul Grayson MBE.
The rugby star taught students about ball handling, evasive techniques and tackling, as well as the importance of hard work, resilience and perseverance in order to succeed.

Hide AdOne student from Skegness Grammar School commented: “It was such a fun day and I’ve learnt a lot from Paul Grayson. To meet a former England player was incredible, but to listen to his experiences and knowledge of the game was very inspiring.”
The pupils joined others from the David Ross Education Trust’s (DRET) secondary academies for the masterclass held at Market Rasen RUFC.
Shane Ward, sports enrichment manager for DRET, said: “It is clear to see that the influence of a top international player has encouraged our students to push themselves in order to achieve their goals.
“Their experiences at this masterclass will really stand them in good stead for competing in the DRET Spring Cup next month.”
