How to throw a Rugby Line-out?

Posted at: 2014-07-08 
Im a 14 year old hooker and this year we start playing with Line-outs. My prob isnt the direction of the ball but that it comes out all wobbly, especially when I throw harder. Ive tried using one hand at the back and one in the front and both of them in the center. I sometimes get them right, especially when holding it really lightly with the back hand. Please help me! Im in trouble if I dont get this right soon!Im a 14 year old hooker and this year we start playing with Line-outs.

Watch the six nations this weekend. You seem to have tried the right methods and I suspect that it is simply a matter of persevering until you achieve a consistant and predictable throw, It took me months of practice before I could even be sure where the ball would reach. Thanks were due to a team-mate who spent as many hours spin-passing the ball back to me.
