Lineout walkthrough

How it works

1. Set up a lineout, unopposed, with the thrower, catchers and backs in their spots.
2. Call a catcher, throw straight, catch, and pass the ball to the scrum half and on to the backs.
3. Repeat from different parts of the pitch. Check your age group's lineout rules with the official text.

Coaching points

• Everyone knows their spot before the throw.
• One clear call, everyone hears it.
• No lifting.

Ready for the next level when: The team sets up and plays from an unopposed lineout without stopping.
