Defensive line progression drill

Your tips and session ideas have really brought some interest back...
Eifion, Rugby Coach

DESCRIPTION

As before, except that one of the attacking line has dropped out and is running as a "floating" attacker behind the rest. The line of attackers still moves left and right as directed by the coach, but the floating player can move wherever they want.

The defenders must keep every attacker covered. They will find they constantly have to move to cover the floating player.

When the coach signals for the attackers to move up, the floating player must hit the gap directly in front of him. The defenders must still have every attacker covered.
