Rugby: 2 vs 1 + 1 in 2 grids

Description

2 attackers with a half back attack a defender

The support player should be able to read the situation and apply the best techniques for ball security, either driving out or sealing off the ball.

Coaching points

The support player must maintain their feet, and drive the tackler off the ball or adopt a strong squat position sealing off the ball with elbows together on the ball carrier.

The support player should avoid flopping on the tackled player as fatigue sets in.

Re-enforce the urgency of winning the race over the ball to both attackers and defender
