German term or phrase: Kontaktpass
Definition:
Bei dieser Technik der Ballübergabe nimmt der Ballführende Spieler mit der Schulter Kontakt zu einem Gegenspieler auf, um ihn zu binden. Nach der Kontaktaufnahme wird der Ball vom Gegner weg nach hinten gehalten, und es erfolgt ein kurzer gefühlvoller Pass zu dem nahe vorbeilaufenden Mitspieler.

Kennt jemand den Fachausdruck dafür im Englischen (Rugby)?
