Training with Scrum OS


Snap Shove -- Synchronize your scrum's push and see if it can maintain stability under a pulse of pressure.


Strength Training -- Use timed routines to improve pack strength and focus. Determine your strongest combinations.

Power Driving -- Teach your pack to move forward and control the wheel on own ball and measure the push while doing so.

Individual Use -- Allow players to practise on their own. Useful for rehabilitation and muscle building programs.

Manual -- Use a stable platform to introduce proper body positioning. Apply pressure once proper body positions are maintained. See how much your scrum can push.

Moving -- Easily moves on and off the pitch enabling you to run set plays involving the full XV.

Training with Scrum OSTM

Advantages of Coaching with Scrum OSTM

  • Simplicity of use
  • Audible tones indicate achievements
  • Active steering allows dynamic wheeling
  • Sensitive braking permits accurate control of motion
  • Automatically resets for consecutive engagements
  • Operator or pack initiated routines
  • Sports-specific isometric exercises can be tailored to represent any opposition
  • Determine best combinations for forward pressure
  • Improve pack's body alignment, foot positions and pushing angles
  • Work rate and effort accurately measured and recorded
  • Track individual and pack scrummaging improvement (post results to motivate your players)

Operating Features


Adjustable Pressure
  The operator can select a pressure level (from 100 kg to 1000 kg) appropriate for the pack using the machine. Packs of greatly varying abilities, experience, and strength can use the machine during the same session with no time lost to resetting levels. In addition, the pressures can be different on the loose and tight head sides during the same scrummage.
Passive Engagement
  Pressures are selected and manually applied by the operator. Pressure switches off automatically (or by the operator) if the scrummagers are unable to hold it.
Active Engagement
  Pre-selected pressure is automatically applied upon the hit. Pressure is withdrawn automatically if scrummagers are unable to hold it or at the end of a timed cycle.
Auto Tracking
  The steering can be set to make the machine track in a straight line, to the right, or to the left.
Braking
 

There are three distinct aspect of the ABS. Each will detect varying scrum pressures and respond by providing the appropriate braking force.

The braking systems are:

  • The Safety Catch Brake prevents the machine from moving upon impact.
  • Manual Braking allows brakes to be set to allow as much or as little movement as desired.
  • Speed Control Braking automatically controls the scrumÂ’s speed of movement -- to a safe walking/driving pace. Speed control braking ensures that the ScrumMaster™ will never "run away".
Brakes Off
  This feature allows free movement and is only present in moving mode.

Statistics

ScrumMaster has developed a hydraulic gauge system that can provide instant statistical feedback. A maintenance free, combination air pressure and hydraulic system gives coaches and players accurate information from which to measure improvement, identify weaknesses and make adjustments. Scrummaging without statistics is like weight training without knowing what you are lifting! This is a powerful motivational tool, and has proved to be one of the most popular features of the ScrumMaster.
