DRILL SET-UP:

Team set out as in a game from scrum, lineout or kickoff.

DRILL EXPLANATION:

  1. The team forms up in attacking or defensive formation as for scrum, lineout or kick-off.
  2. The first ball is fed from the set piece for the use of the backs, who complete a pre-planned move. During the time that the backs are completing their move, the second ball is used for the forwards to complete a pre-planned move. The third ball is used for the team to operate as a unit, after both forwards and backs have moved back into position.

COACHING POINTS:

• Ensure all members of each unit (forwards/backs) are aware of pre-planned moves for the section of field they are operating in.
• Encourage feedback from players towards success of drills.
• Use reserves as opposition.

VARIATIONS / PROGRESSION:

Move to different parts of the field with the team practising what is tactically appropriate at that position.
