Team 1 has a line-out (uncontested). They attack off the line-out. When they score or drop/lose the ball, its turnover and they defend the ball at the tackle shield on their 5m line. When they concede or win the ball, they attack the try-line on the other end, using the ball at that tackle shield.
Players run between stations. Players swap in and out of team 1 at regular intervals or when a player in team 1 isnt performing. Although line-out is uncontested, Team 2 must still jump at the line-out.
