My team of 10 yr olds are great at rucking whilst in posesion but have not grasped the idea of counter rucking. they seem to make the takle and then stand off and not counter ruck. any suggestions on drills that might encourage them to counter ruck?
Hello Graham,
This is a question that was answered a little while ago so I've attached that thread below. In addition I've also included the drills I found when searching "counter ruck" to help you find some ideas to work on with your young players.
Hope this helps,
The Sportplan Team
PS. Next week's session of the week (to be published on the 5th June) should also provide you with some more ideas to bring to the training field.
in more ways than one
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.
