Rugby, Lineout Throw Masterclass

Lineout Throw Masterclass

Core concepts:

The throw is two handed, it aims to keep the shoulders straight so that the throw is always straight. Equally the release of the ball is then 'chased' by the hands so that the throw height is accurate. Power is generated by the core power in the abdominal muscles and by the triceps.
