Ruck reset touch
How it works
- Touch rugby. After every touch, the ball is placed on the ground.
- Defenders must all get back behind the ball before the attack can play it. The coach counts them back.
- A defender who plays from in front gives the attack a free 5 metres.
Coaching points
- Get back, get set, then go forward together.
- Talk: “Back! Back!”
- Watch the ball, not the player.
Ready for the next level when: Defenders get back onside quickly after every touch.
