Prince gets his kicks in rugby session

LONDON, July 1 (UPI) -- Britain's Prince William has been given a masterclass in kicking at a British and Irish Lions rugby training session in New Zealand.

The 23-year-old royal spent some time with Dave Alred, the man credited with molding Jonny Wilkinson into the world's greatest rugby kicker, Smky News said.
