A line-out is the means by which, in Rugby union, the ball is put back into play after it has gone into touch. It is the equivalent of the throw-in in association football.
the forwards normally seven of them from each side line up along side each other at the point the ball went in to touch. The first player from each line must stand on a line that runs parallel to the touch line and is 5 meters in infield. The thrower, normally the hooker (no 2) will then throw the ball in the middle of the 2 lines of players. The players then must jump to take the ball and therefore gain advantage
These are called "Assistant Referees". They support the referee with decision making, inform the referee of offenses that they will need to act upon, judge the ball to be in play or not when the touch line is compromised, and confirm that a penalty goal kick or try conversion is successful. They will also prompt the referee of the games timing as to 5 minutes to end of half or/and full time
The catcher - the target for the ball thrower to get the ball to
The supporting players (normally props) who will help support the jumper and lower them safely to the ground
The Hooker (normally) who will throw in (other can do this but hookers specialise)
The Scrum half (normally) that will be taking the ball from the catcher where the ball is to be moved across the attacking players
Catchers can be any player that is designated and trained to do the task. They are usually the tallest to maximise the height the ball comes into the line.
Most jumpers stand 2nd, 4th and 6th in the line but strategies to move about to gain optimum chance of retaining the ball are now employed i.e. A specific call code is used to throw the ball to a specific person that person will moving in the line position to get best catching chance. That position has been practiced many times with the person throwing in as they have to make sure the ball hits the right area
