Rugby League: Left to right with a switch

This is a great site. The days of scratching practice drills and back...

Andrew

DESCRIPTION

Players in pairs with a ball between them.

The player on the left starts with the ball and passes the ball to the player to the right. The player with the ball then runs diagonally across the grid to the next cone while the player without the ball crosses over behind the ball carrier, ready to receive the ball at the next cone.

They continue passing left to right and crossing over in each grid until they reach the end. Once at the end they run back to the start to the right of the grid, practising the same skill on the way back but without cones to guide them.

Loop Pass:

The ball carrier (A) runs straight in a line and makes a normal lateral pass to the supporting player (B)

After passing the ball A runs towards and behind B

After B catches the pass they angle their run towards the direction the pass has come from and so create space

A runs around B and straightens as they receive the pass

Passing

Pass and run:

Set-up a 10 meter grid with a player on each corner.

Player 1 starts with the ball.

Player 1 passes the ball to player 2 and then quickly moves off their cone and runs to the cone where player 2 is and back to their cone.

Player 2 then passes to player 3, follows the pass to the position of player 3 and back to their starting position.

The aim is to for the players to be back in their starting position before the ball returns back.

Passing

Zig Zag Relay:

The player with the ball passes to the next player and follows the direction of the ball using a side step.

The player who receives the ball does the same and so on to the last player who receives the ball and runs around the group to the first cone and restarts the drill.
