Rugby | Shift Theory leverages Virtual Reality (VR) to redefine modern coaching

South Africa continues to lead rugby innovation, and today we look at a concept reshaping how the game is understood.

Coach Kennedy Tsimba has developed a philosophy focused on those critical moments, when the game changes and players must react instantly.

Using insights from the Springboks and other sports, the work focuses on adaptability, decision-making, and recognising opportunity in chaos.

What makes this even more exciting is how virtual reality (VR) is now being used to simulate these moments, helping players train awareness and decision-making off the field.

Joining us in studio are Kennedy Tsimba, alongside developer Weich Malan, helping us bring Shift Theory to life.
