Rugby: Continuous break

Have fun and help your players to gel as a team with this games-based match-skills session - focusing on ball handling, realignment and communication

Time waits for no man, so use this easy to set up attacking session to get your players thinking on their feet and playing fast, quick-thinking and intelligent rugby

8 players are lined up just outside the 22 metre line, with 3 defenders starting under the posts with the ball.

One of the defenders kicks the ball towards the 22 metre line. Once they the attackers have caught the ball they have to try and score a try without being tagged/ tackled by the defence.

Allow the attacking team 5 minutes to score as many tries as they can, before changing attack and defence around.

Out in 4s - simple hands - When players reach the end they should turn left.

Group realigns around the cone and then use simple hands to finish.

You can put defenders into the second channel to increase the difficulty of this drill.

3 vs 2 in a grid.

Defenders must stay in position to start.

Once skills progress defenders can move to try and stop attackers either by intercepting the ball or touch tackling the ball carrier.

When a player with the ball is touched, tackler stays in passive contact. Ball carrier slides to the ground and presents the ball, with the nearest supporting player comes in and acts as a scrum half.
