:02:13. > :02:14.and furious with big, strong players going

:02:15. > :02:17.head-to-head during a match. But now one team is looking

:02:18. > :02:19.to the dance world to give their future rugby stars

:02:23. > :02:44.have made dance classes a regular feature of training for their young

:02:45. > :02:48.16 to 19-year-old stars. When it first came about,

:02:49. > :02:50.I think the lads thought it was a bit of fun but as we looked

:02:51. > :02:54.more into it, the American football teams have done it

:02:55. > :02:57.and we are looking at it We get ankle injuries

:02:58. > :03:02.in rugby league and this Have the players enjoyed

:03:03. > :03:06.swapping their rugby At first I was a bit shocked

:03:07. > :03:12.and surprised that we were doing it, but we got told it was not a joke

:03:13. > :03:17.and we were going to be doing this It gives us a break from the rugby

:03:18. > :03:23.and it's good for your mindset and it's good for your knees,

:03:24. > :03:25.and it's like people with ankle injuries,

:03:26. > :03:29.it can strengthen them. It's good training and,

:03:30. > :03:32.despite what you might I've never had sore legs like I've

:03:33. > :03:38.had sore legs after doing this. I always talk to my sister

:03:44. > :03:50.more professional teams in the UK will eventually see

:03:51. > :03:53.the benefits as well. I have worked hard to try and look

:03:58. > :03:59.strengthen, and they have worked so hard and the improvement

:04:00. > :04:04.in such a short time... They are sportspeople

:04:05. > :04:06.and they want to be good These future stars will be hoping
