If you see the attached video from our "Drills" section it gives a very good visual of the basic "scrum position" which should be used by all players whenever going into contact.
For instance, when guarding the ball in a ruck situation this position is the strongest one to adopt.
The key points are:
- Eyes open, head up, chin off chest
- Rounded shoulders, braced for impact
- Legs apart, in squat position, bent at knee
- Straight back, weight on balls of the feet to allow for quick reaction
I hope this helps you
