A scrum reset occurs when the initial scrum engagement fails to result in a clean and stable contest due to technical issues or infringements. In such cases, the referee halts play and orders a scrum reset, allowing both teams to regroup and set up for another scrummaging attempt. Scrums may be reset multiple times until a satisfactory engagement and outcome are achieved, ensuring a fair and competitive contest between the forward packs. Proper technique and communication are essential to prevent frequent scrum resets and maintain fluid gameplay.
