Description
Give the ball to the attacking team and tell your players the following.......
- This is touch 7's, other than that - normal rules of 7's apply.
- If touched with the ball: the ball carrier stops, 4 of the defenders must be within touching distance of the ball carrier - only 3 can stay out, and this must happen within 3 seconds.
- When the attack is happy that the defence has moved in - they can then move the ball away from the contact area - and the game restarts.
- There is no limit on the number of touches.
- That's it, lets play!
- Don't forget to give the defence and attack equal time on the ball.
- This game must be played at pace, so the defence is going to have to work hard!
Coaching points
- The attack uses traffic as a tactic.
- Attackers work at pace, attacking space.
- Attackers fix defenders, taking them away from where the ball is to be passed.
- Attackers consider and execute changes to the point of attack.
- Defenders need to communicate, and apply pressure to force mistakes. They should not over commit.
