Rugby: Catch Confidence

Description

Passing in partners.

One player brings their hands up to in front of their face. The other player passes hard to their hands. This is to catch straight, hard passes at an upward angle. Continue passing like this.

Passing in this way puts pressure on the catcher to focus on the catch to prevent the ball from hitting them in the face.

Coaching points

• Hands in front of your nose
• Reaching out to catch the ball
• Hand positioning on the ball to stop it before reaching the face
