Rugby League SESSION PLANNER

SAVE TIME AND COACH WITH CONFIDENCE

Quick answer

Sportplan's rugby league session planner lets you build a training session online from 50 library drills, with diagrams, many with video, or from your own sketches. Pick a template, add drills, then save, print or share the plan with coaches and players, and present it full-screen at training. Or ask Kit, Sportplan's coaching assistant, to plan it for you.

Every drill in the planner comes from Sportplan's library of 50 rugby league drills, with diagrams and, for many, video.

How to plan a rugby league training session

  1. Set one focus. Pick a single theme, such as passing, tackling or ball presentation, suited to the age group: non-contact tag or touch for the youngest, progressing towards contact as players grow.
  2. Warm up with the ball. A short handling or movement activity that previews the theme and gets everyone touching the ball.
  3. Build up the practices. Go from an unopposed drill to an opposed one, for example a passing grid under pressure, then a conditioned game.
  4. Finish with a game. A small-sided game that rewards the theme, then a full game.
  5. Save and share. Save the plan, share it with your other coaches, and add notes afterwards on what worked.

Common questions

Is there a rugby league training session plan?

Yes. Sportplan's rugby league session planner lets you pick drills from the library, add your own, and save, print or share the finished plan.

Is there a rugby league season planner?

A season planner lays out training themes and fixtures across the whole season, while a session planner, like Sportplan's, builds one practice at a time from a drill library.

What are good rugby league passing drills?

Start with static passing along a line for technique, then add movement and a defender, and finish with a conditioned game where every attack must complete a set number of passes.

What are good rugby league tackling drills?

Work on body position and technique against a tackle bag or pad before any live contact, and always follow your league's age-grade contact rules and coach supervision.

Are there rugby league drills for kids?

Yes. Grassroots rugby league runs non-contact tag and touch formats for its youngest age groups, and Sportplan's library has drills suited to that level alongside the full-contact game.
