Rugby: 1v1 Evasion .mp4

2 players start on opposite end of a 5x5m block

1. On the whistle they run down the line, turn the corner,
2. The player with the ball must try and beat the defender with his feet

• 4 players are required for this drill; 1 attacker, 2 defenders and 1 scrum half.

• Once the defenders are set up in either corner of the try line they are assigned a coloured ball.

• The attacker is to start in one corner of the baseline.

• The drill begins when the attacking player is fed a coloured ball by the scrum half.

• The defender associated with that coloured ball will then come out to defend the try line from their corner.

• This drill relies on both the reaction speeds of the defenders noticing which ball is in play and also that of the attacker noticing which defender is in play and consequently where there is space to attack.

Start with 2 players on the centre cone, each with a ball, and facing each other.

1. On the shout "GO", they both run backwards to the first cone
2. They then side step up the grid to the second cone
3. Next players run through the slalom cones back to the start where the ball is passed to the next players
4. Next players can only go when each player has received a ball (to ensure each race is fair).

• 2 teams 
• Bibs 
• Balls 

One team must try and complete 10 passes in a small grid. 

When the player has the ball in his hand he cannot move, the other team must try to intercept the ball to stop them completing 10 passes. 

Defending team must stand 1 metre away from ball carrier.

If the ball is dropped or intercepted its a turn over. 

If a team knock the ball down its a knock on and the same attacking team keep the ball.
