BACKLINE BASICS
-------- ------

work in pairs initially, then add a third person
straight out
1 loop 2
2/1 switch  (fake)
3/2 switch  (fake)


==============================

scrumhalf length of field ball on ground. rest of team in line
acting as flyhalf one at a time. catch ball run 10 yards
then place ball on ground. 


==============================


2 people switch constantly for 40 yards


==============================


read the gap on uneven approaching defense. 3 pairs of defense or
triples. make folks think and react to defensive openings. 
for instance the first set of defenders come up too quick on
ball carrier therefore his support player has a gap to hit and
receive ball. the next set of defenders would come up too quick on
support player, therefore the ball carrier has gap to run thru. the
next set of defenders all come up evenly and aggressively, therefore
a grub kick would be a good option. 
pop/grub kick by oncoming defense if all defenders come up even and
aggreessive. if come up uneven take advantage of gap.
grub kick by oncoming defense to self and teamate.


==============================


50 yards of 2 folks pop and grubbing to selves and each other


==============================

two opposing backlines. the one on defense stands approx where back of
scrum would be. the offense throws out ball and runs upfield with
defense
standing still first few times. next few times defense walks upfield.
offense just has to run around them. next few times defesne jogs up
filed. the next time they come up full speed. eventually they comin up 
trying to tackle. 


==============================


fullback/wing rotation. scrumhalf and 3 backs. defensively have
wings and fullback. the offense does various kicks, short and
in middle of field, angled to left behind wing but in front of fullback,
to right but in front of fullback, and deep behind them all. depending
on whoever receives kick the necessary rotating takes place and the
attack is taken back up field. after they get good at this then 
throw in varies field psotion situations on the affect that has on
rotating, kicking ball back and placement of kicking it back. also
scrum posiiton and the location of pack should be considered on where
they attack/kick. the kicking team is going down on defense after they
kick.
