Lineout Session Plan - Y with The Rugby Site
For junior players the concept of a lineout with players lining up beside each other to contest the ball is a foreign concept. Basketball, Netball , AFL and American football all have a 1 on 1 contest for the ball but not upto 7 players opposing each other in an aerial contest to secure the ball. The purpose of this session is to introduce your young/new players to the Lineout and its unique skill requirements. Ben Herring does a great job in presenting this session.
