Catch and Pass - Session Plan for Advanced Players with The Rugby Site
Part 1. Vision Awareness
Ex Blues and Connacht Skills coach Dave Ellis introduces a catch and pass warm up for players.
The purpose of the exercise is to get players switched on thinking about their catch and pass before getting into their session proper.
Part 2. Catching in Isolation
Scotland coach Gregor Townsend is recognised as one of the world’s best attacking coaches.
In this video, Gregor focuses on the 1st receiver and their requirements.
The more you practice the fundamentals under pressure the more effective you’ll be.
The technical points of catching and passing have to be made either in games or by putting defenders up.

Part 3. L-Shape Passing
Blacks Ferns assistant coach Wesley Clarke introduces the L-Shape passing drill.
As players focus on their catch pass they are required to align and run straight plus make decisions about the timing and direction of their passes.
Part 4. Passing Wave - Adding a Moving Defence
Rugby Site founder Brendon Ratcliffe presents the Passing Wave drill with an active defence.
Again players are required to think about where to pass with an active defence limiting their decision making time.
Part 5. Replay/Freeze/Tactics
Magic Rugby Founder Rusty Earnshaw introduces coaching concepts to help players develop their skills and decision making on the pitch.
It involves playing thinking and making decisions whilst moving the ball. A great one to incorporate Catch and pass skills into game like situations.
Adapt it to suit your requirements and bring the players into the decision making process.
