Counter Rucking

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.
