Rugby: Pass and run

What a fantastic tool. I've found a few drills that are unfamiliar,...
Wes, Rugby Coach

DESCRIPTION

Tell the players the following....

  1. Player 1 starts with the ball.
  2. Player 1 passes the ball to player 2 and then quickly moves off their cone and runs to the cone where player 2 is and back to their cone.
  3. Player 2 then passes to player 3, follows the pass to the position of player 3 and back to their starting position.
  4. Change your passing hand each time
  5. The aim is to for the players to be back in their starting position before the ball returns back, but main thing is that they provide a good pass to the receiving player.

COACHING POINTS

  • Vary the drill, passing to the left and right.
