How can I teach 8 year old boys to spin pass

I assume the key factors to be looking at the ball, get in line with the trajectory, reach for the ball and cradle, sideways stance. Is that right?

At what point can you lift your jumpers when the opposition are throwing into the lineout.

The law says that a forward pass is one "thrown forward" "in the direction of the opponents' goal line" Does that mean that, if the ball is passed and the receiver catches it NEARER to the opponents goal line than from where the ball was passed that the pass was forward? (Leaving to one side any other touches of the ball that might have taken place.) Maybe an example is better. Player 1 passes the ball sideways - releasing it on the 22 metre line. Player 2 (with no other player having touched the ball), running from well behind the 22 metre line, catches the ball when it has travelled sideways but the ball is now 20 metres from the opponents goal line (2 metres further forward from the place that the ball was passed). Is that a forward pass or throw forward? And if not, why not?

Hi,i coach under 12 and both the hookers struggle to get the ball past the 2nd player, does anyone know of any drill that could help them to improve their distance.<br />Cheers<br /><br />AB

2 Lineout Questions that are related%3A Can you fake jump when it is your lineout? and Can defenders lift more than 1 jumper? In reviewing tape from our last match I noticed that the opposing team always had someone jump before the actual jumper was lifted. I thought I heard the commentators (Magners league game) say that it was illegal to have more than 1 person have their feet leave the ground. The same opposing team would always pre-jump their first pod before the ball was in the air. Their 2nd pod would also jump and if the ball went to that area they'd usually win it. It's my understanding that each lineout can only lift/jump a single player and NEVER before the ball leaves the hand.

plaese tell me the key factors of a miss pass

Hi folks, I have been coaching children from 7 to 16 years for along time. I now have a new challenge. We are opening rugby up for children from 2 years to 7 years. We will also be holding classes for children with special needs and would appreciate any tips or dialogue with coaches who have any experience. I look forward to exchanging views and results with any coaches willing to share. We will hold a few test sessions in the near future and will stay in touch. Many thanks. Kieron .Hong Kong.

Ask a question and have it answered by Coaches from around the world and Sportplan's team of Experts.
