In this plan we work on your rugby players' ability to guard the fringes of the ruck.
Skill covered include defensive organisation, line-speed and communication - all vital ingredient needed for a solid back line.
What's in the session?
This session start with a bang. The high intensity handling warm up exercises will set the mood for the rest of your session.
Once your players are motivated and ready to go, we look to transition into the high-tempo defensive drills, to help your players stay onside, shape up quickly and defend the ruck. All drills come complete with detailed coaching points, and progressions allow you to develop the practices and push your players.
