The aim of this session is to give your forwards the knowledge and confidence to lift your jumpers quickly and bring them down safely - with simple practices that can be applied to any lineout formation/improvements.
Working in pods of three we build the jumping and lifting skills as we go. Starting with a simple react and lift exercise and then adding elements to the skill such as catching and passing at the top of the jump, moving as a pod and competing for the ball in the air!
Session goals:
Use the drills in this session to cover the core skills of lineout play and help your forwards to become masters of the lineout!
