This week's session has been designed to get your players passing the ball quicker through the attacking line's hands, working towards the space.
In the context of the game players rarely need to pass in quick succession for more than 3 or 4 passes, usually when passer and receiver are under opposition pressure or when shifting the point of attack. For this reason it's important that all your players are able to think fast and pass quickly.
To make sure your team is able to shift the ball at speed - either to maintain possession or pass quickly up the line into space this session works on pacey passing, looking to minimise dropped passes and gives your players plenty of conditioned game practice designed to get them committing defenders and opening up space on the pitch!
Sportplan Tip:
Don't forget, make sure you enjoy what you do, keep the session moving and make sure your players leave feeling they have progressed.

Most line breaks are made by support runners, not ball carriers. Teach the angles, depth and timing that get them there.
The isolated ball carrier is rugby's spookiest turnover. Here is the five-step fix, plus drills that rebuild support lines fast.
Tacklers are aiming lower, so carriers who dip late put heads at risk. Teach footwork, a strong early body height and leg drive to win the collision safely.
