This week we show coaches the basic technique of the
"Push pass or the pop pass from the ground."
 

" The push pass is a great pass to keep the continuity going
and remember with continuity you can beat the best defensive
systems. The pop pass is non-existent in some rugby
countries, like South Africa, because of the safety first
approach and the preference to rucking " -
Jan Oberholzer
