Popis: Abstract This study examines 126 successful, six- or seven-man lineouts of the 2013 Six Nations Tournament. Data were extracted from footage of the competition to calculate kinematic variables along with jumper position. Through cluster analysis, six types of throw were identified according to distance and velocity: short-fast, short-slow, medium short-fast, medium short-slow, medium long and long. Significant differences were detected in all the variables examined depending on the throw category (throw distance P
