Player Progression and Game Play
Further developing personal and team skills and drills the final element of the game is introduced, the contested line out, at this stage players are made aware of the techniques required to lift in a contested line out where players from the opposing team can interfere with the play of a ball at the line out. Coaches will emphasis player safety and the laws governing the line out.
Girls at this age group are now permitted to enter leagues. As well as league matches this age group will continue to play in knock out tournaments and friendlies. Introducing the contested line out with lift permitted, they play in teams of 15 on a pitch of 100m x 70 playing 35 minutes a half for a maximum of 90 minutes per tournament. Every player is guaranteed to play at least one half per match no matter their ability.
