Hi Sian,

I coach under 6 and we have a number of games we use I'll give a quick summary if you want further info contact me directly.

Tag Frenzy - Everyone has to grab someone else's tag, when the do they shout Tag the tagger hands it back to the tagged player and they must attach their tag before they can join in and tag some more - good running around warm up

Stuck in the Mud - You have catchers (we call monsters as children prefer that) they each have a ball ratio of about 1 to 4. The Monsters (with Balls) have to touch the mice (players without balls) if they touch them the mouse has to stand still legs and arms out wide, they shout help but can only be released by another mouse crawling under their arm or through their legs.

Regards

Hello Sian,

To view our non-contact drills, designed specifically for introducing younger players to the game, go to Tag Rugby.

All the best,
