Miami University Coach Killian Mulkern says his experience in the Crusaders Global Academy Coach Development program in New Zealand transformed his approach to coaching. During the two‑week residency in Christchurch, he learned advanced technical, tactical, leadership, and player‑development methods drawn from one of rugby’s most successful professional environments. Mulkern highlighted the value of exposure to elite coaching standards, new perspectives from a global cohort of coaches, and lessons he has since applied to elevate performance back home.
