Sportplan rugby has played a large role in my team's love for the game!
Can anyone explain what a quick throw-in is and how it works?
What tactics can be used when chasing a box kick? In addition to the blind side wing chasing the kick, what patterns could be used to regain possession or limit counter attacking possibilities?
Hi would anyone have drills for a scrum half position. Passing of the ball both ways, quick ball, box kicking ect.
I assume the key factors to be looking at the ball, get in line with the trajectory, reach for the ball and cradle, sideways stance. Is that right?
My sons plays for the U9 team, his position is number ten, he was put there due to his kicking power, drop kicking accuracy, etc - I have been teaching him over time to tackle this has helped him build his confidence - what I have been noticing is the fact that when he gets the ball, he wont run - he just refuses to do anything with it...I need to find a way to encourage him the move forward with it, but nothing ever happens, now his own team mates are starting to look down at him, since he has giving the game away far to many time. Help!
Hi, I was trying to make a animation where I kick the ball from the 10 and I want to chase the kick and have the kicker (the 10) pick up the ball again. However, I can't re-pickup the ball again with the 10.Thanks
