Digital Strength & Conditioning Coach for Rugby Teams

Individualised programmes for every player in your squad. Position-specific, schedule-aware, coach-controlled. From £800/year.

"Premiership Rugby teams that consistently finish in the top half of the table record significantly lower player availability loss through injury than those in the bottom half. Fit squads play more of their best XV, more often."

CURVA Coach gives Rugby teams the operational capacity of a full performance department — AI-generated, position-specific programming for every player in your squad, schedule-aware load management, and coach-controlled delivery. Performance support without full-time staffing costs.

Your position. Your programme.

Not every Rugby player needs the same training. CURVA Coach builds around the specific demands of every position in your squad.

Prop

Props need maximum lower body strength, scrummaging power and upper body mass. The programme focuses on compound strength movements, neck and back resilience, and the physicality to dominate at the set piece for 80 minutes.

Winger

Wingers need explosive sprint speed, acceleration over 10–40m and a high power-to-weight ratio. The programme prioritises sprint mechanics, lower body power and the change of direction ability to beat defenders in open space.

How it works

01

Connect your schedule

Import your training calendar and fixture list. CURVA reads your season structure and programmes around it.

02

Set up athlete profiles

Each player adds their position, training history, and any physical constraints. Takes a few minutes once.

03

AI generates programmes

CURVA produces individualised weekly programmes for every player automatically. Ready for coach review in minutes.

04

Review, approve, deliver

Coaches review and edit every programme before it reaches players. You stay in control throughout.

Elite coaching. Without the elite bill.

A full-time S&C coach costs £30,000+ a year. CURVA Coach gives your entire Rugby squad the same quality of individualised programming from £800/year — roughly 2.5% of a single hire's annual cost. Performance support without full-time staffing costs.

CURVA augments your coaching staff — it doesn't replace them.

Find your programme type

Whether you run a club, a school programme, an academy, or a university team, CURVA is built for your context.

Common questions

Can CURVA build position-specific programmes for forwards and backs? +

Yes. Front row, locks, back row, and backs all have different physical demands. CURVA builds around your players' positions from day one — so your props aren't doing the same programme as your wingers.

How does CURVA handle contact load in rugby? +

CURVA factors in the physical demands of contact sport when managing training load. In-season maintenance blocks are designed around match density, and recovery weeks are built in around heavy fixture periods.

Does CURVA work for academy and development squads? +

Yes. CURVA can support your full pathway — from senior squad through to academy and development players — with age-appropriate, position-specific programming for each group.

How does CURVA Coach work for teams? +

CURVA Coach takes your team's training schedule, fixture list, and each athlete's profile, and uses AI to generate individualised weekly programmes. Coaches review, edit, and approve everything before athletes see it. Programmes adapt automatically to load, recovery, and schedule changes.

Can CURVA replace a full-time S&C coach? +

No — CURVA augments coaches, it doesn't replace them. Where teams have S&C staff, CURVA gives them capacity to support more athletes individually. Where teams don't, CURVA gives coaching staff the tools to deliver structured programming with practitioner-grade AI assistance.

How much does CURVA Coach cost? +

Plans start from £800/year. For context, hiring a full-time S&C coach typically costs £30,000+ annually.

Is there a free version for teams? +

Yes. CURVA's programming software is free for coaches and teams — no credit card required. CURVA Coach (AI automation) is the paid upgrade.

How long does setup take? +

Most teams are up and running within a week. We provide full onboarding support — you connect your team, import your squad, set up athlete profiles, and link your schedule.
