Rugby League: Conditioning circuit

Great drills and practices thank you. Have used to great success for...

Steve, Clayesmore Prep School

DESCRIPTION

In each of the two channel there are two players with a tackle bag and two players binding with their back to the runner.

The first player starts and runs to the player with the tackle bag and makes a tackle before moving on.

After the 2nd tackle he runs to bind with the 2 players and drives them across the line. When the 3 players cross the line one of the 2 binding players takes over and continues to run up the other channel, with the first running player now binding with the other player.

COACHING POINTS

Swap the players with the tackle bags regularly
