Does he play any football or rugby?

4

YES . He play rugby say from March to JULY and he started playing hockey as well from july to SEPTEMBER

HE IS ACTUALLY A HURDLE ATHLETE, BUT WE DO SOME SPEED TRAINING IN THE PRE-SEASON
AND WILL STARED HURDLING DURING DESEMBER.

His start is very slow at this stage 30 m 4.4 sec but from the 60 m he just outrun his competitors, he maintained hir max speed excellent during the last 40 m of the 100m race.

Any sugestions how to train to get his start and eccelaration to 30 m in a better time.
