Rugby: Passing Accuracy

Description

Passing in partners.

Players stand opposite each other about 3-4m away. One player will take 1-2 steps forward, then pass back and sideways to their partner. Their partner then takes 1-2 steps forward, as they walk backwards to their original spot, so the player can pass back to them. Continuous walking and passing.

Coaching points

• Focus on the 2 steps forward being straight
• Accurate passing by turning head and shoulders to face receiver and follow through with the hands. Hips stay square
• Receiver gets their hands up as a target for passer
