|'''KICK OFF'''
|To restart the game in an advantageous way for their team. 
|To secure the ball so they can launch their own attack.
|The kicker takes the kick off from the centre spot.  The remainder of his team line up in their channels 5m back from the halfway line ready to chase after the ball.  All attackers (other than the kicker) gain +5 Momentum
|Defenders line up in their channels midway between the 10m line and their 22m line waiting to receive the ball.
|81% of kick offs are taken short
|Kicker
|N/A
|Coaches can choose their preference for kick offs.
|Is the kick off long or short?
|1. Long - go to LONG KICK OFF

|
|Note: Assume Excellent is always SL/3; Good is 2xSL/3; Poor is 100-SL
|
|Note:  Sevens players (attack and defence) will always try and form a backwards leaning line across the pitch with the nearest player being 3m behind thew ball. In all scenarios, Sweepers will stand around 10m behind the line following the ball across the pitch

|'''LONG KICK OFF'''
|This option cedes possession, so is designed to gain territory - pinning their opponent as close to his try line as possible.
|To secure the ball so they can launch their own attack.
|The kicker takes the kick off from the centre spot.  The remainder of his team line up in their channels 5m back from the halfway line ready to chase after the ball. All attackers (other than the kicker) gain +5 Momentum
|Defenders line up in their channels midway between the 10m line and their 22m line waiting to receive the ball.
|19% of kick offs are taken long
|Kicker, Opposition Receiver
|KCK, HND
|The ball will normally be kicked into the channel of the opposition player with the worst HND stat
|How good is the kick? (KCK)
|1. Excellent - kick should go 45-50m and over the Receiver’s head, making the them have to turn around to chase the ball (their Momentum goes to -5).  Go to LOOSE BALL

|'''SHORT KICK OFF'''
|This option minimises territorial gain in return for a chance to try and win the ball back after the restart.
|To secure the ball so they can launch their own attack.
|The kicker takes the kick off from the centre spot.  The remainder of his team line up in their channels 5m back from the halfway line ready to chase after the ball. All attackers (other than the kicker) gain +5 Momentum
|Defenders line up in their channels midway between the 10m line and their 22m line waiting to receive the ball.
|Around 33% of short kick offs will be recovered by the kicking team
|Kicker, Chaser on the Kicking team, Opposition receiver
|KCK, JMP. HND
|The ball will normally be kicked into the channel of the player on the kicking team with the best JMP stat
|How good is the kick? (KCK)
|1. Excellent - kick should land 17-20m from the halfway line in the Chaser’s channel. Jumping odds start at 40/60 in favour of the Receiver
|Who gets to the ball first? (JMP Chaser and Receiver)
|Both roll an EGP check (JMP). If both roll the same = no change to the Jumping Odds.  One player jumps better = amend the odds to improve their chance of getting the ball first (+10 for one better, +20 for two better). If either or both players roll Poor, check for foul play
|If applicable, has one or both players committed a foul? see separate sheet on AGGRESSION, INJURIES AND CARDS

|'''SCRUM'''
|To restart the game and launch an attack.  Because four players from each team are involved in the scrum (Props x 2, Hooker, Scrum Half), if they can get the ball out quickly there is a lot of space elsewhere on the pitch for the other players to run into. 
|Ideally to win the ball “against the head”.  Otherwise to prevent the attack making progress by a combination of disrupting the scrum, closing down the options across the rest of the pitch and trying to get back into their defensive line as quickly as possible.
|Two Props (left and right) and the Hooker (middle) are part of the Scrum, the Scrum Half puts the ball in and immediately runs behind the Scrum to pick up the ball once it has been hooked (kicked back) by the Hooker.  The remaining players form a line across the pitch 10m back from where the Scrum takes place Note that this might mean one to the left of the Scrum and two to the right or vice versa.  Note also that the line these players form is not straight across the pitch but backward leaning the further away from the ball. Further note that players may not be standing in their allocated channel. 
|Two Props (left and right) and the Hooker (middle) are part of the Scrum, with the Scrum Half shadowing his opposite number but from his side of the Scrum.  The remaining players form a backward leaning line across the pitch starting 10m back from where the Scrum takes place
