3-second touch
How it works
- Normal touch rugby in a small area.
- If the ball carrier holds the ball for more than 3 seconds without running or passing, it's a turnover.
- The coach counts out loud at first.
Coaching points
- Praise quick choices, even wrong ones.
- Support players call for the ball early.
- Keep the area small so there are lots of touches.
Ready for the next level when: Turnovers for holding the ball have almost disappeared.
