Improving players body position when making tackle and driving in scrum.
1. Make a 10m x 10m grid. 2. Eight players move freely around the grid. 3. On coachâs whistle, second row enters grid and aims to drive all of the players out of the grid. 4. Second row has one minute to get the players out. If all players are ejected, note the time taken to complete and compare it against the next competing second row. 5. The second row who takes the quickest time to eject all players from the grid is the winner. - Focus on that low body position and good leg drive.

Most line breaks are made by support runners, not ball carriers. Teach the angles, depth and timing that get them there.
The isolated ball carrier is rugby's spookiest turnover. Here is the five-step fix, plus drills that rebuild support lines fast.
Tacklers are aiming lower, so carriers who dip late put heads at risk. Teach footwork, a strong early body height and leg drive to win the collision safely.
