9 10 miss 12 straight to 13 -over line- with 15 also running an over line straight to 14. 14 needs to run into the hole in front of them wherever it is. Needs to 'check / scan'.

Backs moves

1 vs 1 race:

two lines of players opposite each other in 2 lines.

one of the teams has the ball and has to pass the ball along each player in the line.

The player in possession of the ball when the coach calls out go has to run around the cone at the end of the grid to try and run the full length of the grid to score a try. The player from the opposition in line with the player that is running can try to stop the player scoring by running around the cone and tagging the runner before they reach the line.

Warm up

Beat the defence:

Offence (blue), line out in one deep line.

Defence (red) - opposite in a straight line, slightly inside player you are marking.

Offence endeavour to pass ball along line.

Defence move up to stop them. Each defender goes up to tackle - if ball is passed THEN they work to protect inside shoulder of player on their outside.
