Scrum

1 vs 1 get to feet:

Pass gets given to the attacker who has to run down the grid. When the tackle comes in the player with the ball has to present the ball.

Tackler has to get to feet quickly to get the ball and pass it back the the initial passer of the practice . Next two player go.

After each go the players swap sides.

Tackling

3 on 3 engagement procedure.:

Front Rows coming together. Each prop touches the opponents upper arm and then pause before the front rows meet.

The sequence should be: Crouch, touch, pause, engage. Coaches should replicate this call when practising to help players develop their timing and to assist the Referee

Scrum

Ball presentation drill:

The ball carrier and one support player runs towards the other group and, at the middle the ball carrier goes to ground and presents the ball. The support player straddles the player on the ground, picks up the ball and runs on to the next group, passing the ball to them
