Crouch and hold

How it works

1. A front three bind, as in Scrum bind practice. The players behind bind on in their positions.
2. On the call, everyone crouches into a low, flat-backed shape and holds it for 5 seconds.
3. Unopposed. Nobody pushes against another team.

Coaching points

• Flat backs and heads up, all the way through.
• Hips just above knees.
• If the shape wobbles, stand up and start again.

Ready for the next level when: The whole unit crouches and holds a steady, flat-backed shape on the call.
