Rudi Brits is a former professional rugby player with 17 years of experience competing across three continents. Since retiring from playing, Rudi has become a dedicated force in high-performance rugby development — working with athletes at every level from club rugby through to international representation.

His coaching spans mental performance, strength and conditioning, and position-specific technical development, and the results speak for themselves.

In the past 5 years, Rudi has coached:

• 8 current BC Bears players (ages 15–18)
• 2 Canada U20 Men's representatives
• 1 Canada U20 Women's representative
• 1 Canada Women's Rugby player
• 1 MLR professional player
• Numerous collegiate athletes across North America

Rudi's approach is built on one belief — that every serious rugby athlete deserves access to the same quality of preparation that professional players receive. Gainlyne Rugby Performance exists to close that gap.
