My son has been playing rugby at school and
is aloud to do something called a 'hand off'
where you can fend of a player with the flat
of your hand, even in the head....i believe
he is telling me the truth but someone i know
says that isn't a move and says he is lying
can anyone confirm this for me please?  |

off is perfectly acceptable. your friend is
talking nonsense. unless hes erm "handing
off" his teacher in the showers pmsl. |

Fend or "hand off"
Fending is the action by the ball carrier of
repelling a tackler using his arm. For the
action to be legal, the ball carrier's arm
must be straight before contact is made; a
shove or "straight-arm smash", where the arm
is extended immediately before contact or on
contact, is illegal and classed as dangerous
play.
