Before SkillsBase

Munster Rugby faced challenges in developing a secure, scalable mobile training app. They needed to centralise training guidance, tailor content for different experience levels, and improve communication with age-grade players while addressing privacy concerns. Additionally, they needed to improve tracking of video/PDF content access to ensure it was not overlooked or buried in conversations. Introducing modern learning methods to better connect players and coaches was another critical challenge.

“SkillsBase is allowing us to promote our best practice programs, including our cornerstones program, across the province to the players and coaches. The various features are beneficial, the interaction between the players and the coach with the feedback loop, the quizzes, and the surveys. What we thought might be very complicated to do, SkillsBase has provided an incredibly simple way for us to communicate and engage with more players. Players are more aware of the game in the Province by showcasing our Four Cornerstones and key training concepts (position-specific skills).”
