The article notes: "Would the world be a better place if a few more people played rugby? That’s the question boldly asked by School of Hard Knocks, the Sky Sports reality series, which cites in support of the proposition the “motivation, discipline and respect” that rugby union offers as standard, and is also bold enough to intimate that the answer might be yes. ... Now, though, in goes School of Hard Knocks, scouring deprived Haringey (as, in previous series, it scoured the East End of London and Croydon), luring the disaffected with the promise of competitive rugby (and a role in a television show; we shouldn’t leave that potential clincher out of the motivational package) and offering a glimpse of redemption in a session on the tackle pads with Scott Quinnell."
The article notes: "It is the latest lesson from the School of Hard Knocks, the unique collision of rugby union, fly-on-the-wall television documentary and disadvantaged young adults which should be compulsory viewing in all middle-class households when its seventh series starts on Sky in September. ... With any luck, this year's shivering Birmingham intake – the weather has been grim since filming started – will also find it a springboard to a better place and, ideally, full-time work."
The article notes: "Ever fancied giving a rugby pundit a good pasting? Sky Sports' 'School of Hard Knocks' will do it for you, in episode four of the series to be aired next Tuesday night. Will Greenwood and Scott Quinnell are attempting to turn a bunch of East London ex-criminals and ne'er-do-wells into a rugby team, and the latest episode sees one player, known as Lucky, pile into Greenwood during a tackle session. A suitably gravelly voiceover comes from Steve "Phil Mitchell" McFadden of 'Eastenders' - surprising really, when Ross Kemp is the real-life rugby fan among the fictional brothers. Anyway, with two more episodes to come even the relentlessly positive Greenwood, whose dad Dick was one of England's greatest coaching innovators, is wondering if this motley crew are worth all the aggro."
The article notes: "SOHK is widely recognised as a television programme that was presented by former British Lions rugby players Will Greenwood and Scott Quinnell. Stories that evolved from the progreamme and the benefits to those participating were obvious, so much so that the SOHK is now very much recognised as an important national charity, delivering life-changing programmes across the UK for both children and adults."
The article notes: "The 24 unemployed men from South Wales featured in a new Sky series premiering this weekend have been praised for the progress they made during the televised social inclusion scheme. The latest series of School of Hard Knocks begins this Saturday on Sky Sports and on Sunday on Sky 1, having been filmed earlier this year. It features the men from Cardiff, Bargoed, Tonypandy and Aberdare who are taken on an intensive training regime by Wales legend Scott Quinnell, English World Cup winner Will Greenwood and motivational psychologist Paul Boross. The series culminates with a jobs fair for the participants."
The article notes: "SKY SPORTS’ COMMUNITY-based rugby project School of Hard Knocks could be coming to these shores in the coming months. ... The show’s sixth series (which ended last month) brought the Sky cameras to Glasgow, but producer Luke Rosier told TheScore.ie that Limerick and Belfast were also viable candidates at the last selection stage."
