After having a successful rugby union playing career with NSW Country and the Australian Wallaroo’s Alana then moved into coaching. Moving to Melbourne she worked with the Melbourne Unicorns club and was awarded the Australian Rugby Union Community coach of the year in 2017 before taking on the head coaching role with the Melbourne Rebels Super W side in their inaugural season. Alana has focused on developing a strong team culture with the slogan "a Rebel like her" being a daily attribute within the team. Another fantastic aspect to Alana's coaching was the idea of setting up growth groups to assist with connections and communication within the team. Another aspect of Alana’s coaching that really got me excited was her transition into using a games based approach over a traditional closed skills more regularly. Her comments around developing decision makers in chaos was music to my ears. To connect with Alana to get more insight into her coaching you can connect via the following social media platforms:
