Set up hoops/markers as shown and place several footballs in the centre area. On go, players will take the balls from the centre area. Once the balls are all gone players are allowed to steal from eachother. Who ever has the most footballs in their nest after an agreed upon time limit is the winner. There is no guarding of the nets allowed. progression includes reducing the number of balls in the centre or reducing the time allowed.

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.
