Rugby League: Rugby Pinball

2 groups of 3 Players 1 ball in side a very small grid.

the team in possession has to pass the ball to each other to try and touch the player in the middle (moving around). Whilst the team not in possession is trying to intercept the ball.

Starting with their backs to one another, two players stand 5 metres apart and run off in opposite directions along one side of the 20 metre grid.

At the corners of square each player cuts back into the grid and the player with the ball attempts to score by running with the ball into the far corner. The blue player's objective is to tackle them and prevent them from scoring.

The first player moves forwards, makes contact with the tackle bag and retreats diagonally to the line of cones.

The next player joins the line and both the players move forward and hit the tackle bag or shield before retreating back to the line again.

The third player then joins the line and all three players go out to meet the tackle bag, shield or fall on the ball.

Drill continues with all players involved.

The group is split in half.

The coach is positioned behind the defenders and instructs the movement of the attackers, who are holding tackle shields.

Defenders must mirror the movement of the attackers.

If the coach indicates right, the attackers move right.

If the coach raises his hands in the air, the attackers move forwards and the defenders move up in a line to meet the tackle shields.

The two lines then retreat and the drill continues.
