Rugby League: Quickhands

What a fantastic tool. I 've found a few drills that are unfamiliar,...

Wes, Rugby Coach

DESCRIPTION

The first player runs out with the ball to the first set of cones and passes the ball to the second player.

The second player then runs out to the next set of cones and passes the ball to the third player, who runs out to the next set of cones.

In the last area of cones, the ball has to be passed quickly amongst all the players.

COACHING POINTS

Drill can be made harder by adding more players.

Players can also vary the last section by introducing switches and scissors.

Pass Invaders:

Split the team into two groups.

The players run to the cone and then pass the ball square before running on to the next cone and pass square. When the players reach the end they have to run back through the middle of the cones.

The practice keeps repeating.

Passing

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.
