Hi Coach,

There isn't a limit on the distance a team can push. However, the law stipulates once a maul is formed the ball must be available within 5 seconds. The referee should then call "use it" and the ball should be moved away from the contact area.

No more than 3 players from each team can be involved in the maul.

Hope this helps.
