Sportplan rugby has played a large role in my team's love for the game!
What is the correct restart after a player has missed a drop goal?
Every scrum coach in the Uk will have kids passing the ball straight off the floor with no pull back, then when you watch the Lions play - the two scrum halves of Phillips and Ellis both lift the ball up and take a step before passing, as do most scrum halves in top flight rugby...(in Phillips case a double step shuffle!......why is this, there must be a reason? should we all be coaching kids to do the same ?
Hi would anyone have drills for a scrum half position. Passing of the ball both ways, quick ball, box kicking ect.
How quickly must a player call a mark when he catches an up and under inside his 22. We had someone catch the ball whilst diving on the floor - he looked up and then called a mark. Is this legal or does someone have to call a mark whilst in the process of catching?
my club has a problem with the seniors. Numbers at training are low every week, I know there is not a quick solution so how can i create a good culture of training ?
I have a question a little strange, but%3A during the mach, a player can drop kick at goal which will give a score of 3 points. But this can be done anywhere on the field? Thank you%3A)
U11 Rugby I am coaching the U11's this season. There are some significant rule changes from U10. Please can I get some advice on what lessons were learned from coaches who have been through a similar experience.

After the Six Nations kicked off this weekend, and the 3 failed attempts at the end of the game respectively, I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to why these drop goals were missed, and the best ways to coach the technique?

I need to know the difference between a free and a penalty kick. Because I am learning to be a ref
