Are you winning 90% of your own lineout ball? In this video I share the simple 2-step method I use to improve lineout success rate at club level — building a weekly lineout menu based on opposition analysis, and keeping lineout plays simple and repeatable.
Whether you're coaching grassroots rugby, club rugby, or junior rugby, lineout consistency comes down to preparation and execution — not complexity. I break down how I cut down our lineout menu each week, involve the leadership group in opposition analysis, and why teams like South Africa and Ireland dominate set piece with simple, fast lineouts.
If you're looking for rugby coaching tips to improve your set piece, this is a good place to start.
