Synopsis

Rick Ferrara joins Phil Sharpe, Head Coach of Holt RFC in London's Eastern Division, for the Second Edition of the popular Break the Line tactics manual, featuring rich commentary on each tactic, a new drills section, and QR code links to videos that show each tactic in action.

Break the Line is a primer for coaches and players who want to understand the concepts behind attacking in rugby at a developmental level and beyond. It examines how, from very basic ideas, a player or coach can develop more complex attacks in the open field. The diagrams are designed specifically for this book. They are clear, intuitive, and meant to convey the speed and angles at which attackers and their support should move in order to win in tactical situations.

By being so ultra-focused, Break the Line is an excellent guide, particularly for those who wish to gain an advantage in understanding what makes for sharp, efficient, and winning offense. Inside you'll find simple and complex open-field tactics, analysis, tricks to winning situations, “spoilers” that ruin offensive attacks, drills for honing certain skills, and tips for real-world application of the techniques.
