I am troubled and need clarification;
My original understanding of U18 (not U19) is that once the scrum has wheeled (unintentionally) beyond 45 degrees then the scrum is reset, with the original "throwing in" team putting the ball in again.
1) I have just read some RFU U19 variations (appendix 2) and they state:
If scrums are reset for wheeling beyond 45 degrees the throw-in is to the side in possession at the time it is wheeled beyond 45 degrees.
So this tells me that it might not be the original throwing-in team that gets the second put in.
2) The second clarification is that this says U18 (there is no "turnover" law at U18) so can I assume from this that at U19, although this appendix is written to cover U19s too, the Laws of turn over do apply to that age group (U19) - in other words at U19 its a wheel beyond 90 degrees the team NOT in possession at the time of stoppage throws in.
any thoughts much appreciated!!
