For tactical reasons a coach may wish to use less Forwards in his Line Out then usual. The team awarded the Line Out may choose how many Forwards they wish to have in the Line-out (min.2). These players can be placed any where on their side of the Line Out marker. Players not used must remain 3 spaces behind the Line Out template as stated in the Training Guide.

The opposition may choose to have the same or fewer players in their Line Out, but they may not have more.
