Rugby avoiding "three denseness" connected by a pass Practice resumed at Saga Technical High School May 15 15:42

While the declaration of emergencies was lifted in areas other than the Tokyo metropolitan area except for some areas, Saga Kogyo in Saga Prefecture, a regular of the national high school rugby competition, resumed practice in a manner that avoids so-called "3 denseness".

Saga Kogyo has participated in the National High School Rugby Championship in Higashi-Osaka City from the end of the year to the beginning of the year for 38 consecutive games.

While the declaration of emergency was lifted in areas other than the Tokyo metropolitan area, training was resumed on the 14th for the first time in 3 weeks.

Rugby is a sport in which players cannot avoid contact with each other due to competition for the ball, but in practice, in order to avoid crowding and contacting as closely as possible, it was usually a long distance and a precise path was thrown or tackled. I also used paths to connect them so that they would not be crowded.

In addition, when athletes rehydrated, they stopped using bottles and prepared bottles for each athlete. In addition, the manager sanitized the hands of the athletes during the practice, so he was careful about hygiene.

Saga Kogyo was originally good at the power game in which the forwards came out in front, but director Kiyoshi Edayoshi said, “There are of course crowds in rugby, but it is also a strategy to use the entire ground widely to prevent people from gathering. That's why I want to work on rugby that doesn't create crowds, "he said, saying that he should avoid so-called" 3 crowds "and that he should work on" expanded rugby "based on the current time.

Captain Asahi Uchikawa said, "I haven't decided if a flower garden will be held yet, and the motivation is uneven depending on the players, but I'd like to face the national competition in good condition, such as by playing red and white."
