Sportplan rugby has played a large role in my team's love for the game!
What does the "T Bone" concept mean when defending?
Does anyone have any good drills for keeping the defensive line?
what is the correct position for the centre's feet as he waits in attacking line for ball
My under 18 team tried to take a quick lineout with one attacker in the lineout and 2 defenders in the lineout. When he threw the ball to another attacker who was about 10metres behind the lineout he was told by the referee that the lineout had formed and could not take a quick penalty. What is the clarification of this as I always thought you had to have at least 2 players from each team in the lineout to say that the lineout had formed?
Any view on counter attacking a full back entering the line against a man to man marking system?
Does anyone have a really good drill to encourage backs to hold their steepness when attacking - my team of dreams are Under 11's
Improving game awareness. How can I improve players insight into "what happens next", besides by whatching (games)? Players tend to be fixed on the ball(situation) and seldom look at what is in front of them%3A how can I stimulated them to take time to quickly look around and assess the situation?
My team are new and are very slow on reforming the defensive line,any ideas on how to speed it up?
I need to make my 10 ,12 and 13 aware of the tackle line and the gain line, this in itself is not too difficult but I want to have some form of games (possible 3 different ones) that will emphasise the differance for both attack and defense
How can i learn and understand strategy of my possition. I/m playing at possition 10. Is there any literature to read about?
Why is it important to get players to score the try when completing a handling/running drill?
Drill to help to teach backs how to check their line up from defensive to attacking
I have started an under 10s team up, and I would say about 8 from the 13 children I have , did not play rugby until about 6 months ago. Of these players, there seems to be a lot of potential, as we are scoring tries against teams, that very rarely concede tries.the problem I got with them, is that we are very poor at organising our selves in defense when the opposition has the ball, which does result in us conceding quite a few tries. We have some very good tacklers in the team. Can anyone offer some ideas on how I can get them to organise themselves? Thanks . Chris.
Any "simple" attacking moves from a scrum that you can recommend for a U15s XV side. Looking to get them to think about how the back line would would set up and have different options from a) center field and b) tight left or right all at the half way mark.
My players often line-up too flat on attack, especially in later phases. How can I work on improving their depth?
My coach has put me at openside flanker and I'm confused of where i should be after the scrum. Should I be attacking the opposing scrum half or just trailing behind the backs waiting to clean up/ form a ruck? It would be great to know what I'm doing !
How can I improve my team's line speed in defence? Are there any drills which can help me?
