Abstract: We describe combinatorially the coefficients occurring in the irreducible decomposition of the Weyl module associated with an almost skew-shape belonging to the family  . The proof uses the fundamental exact sequence for almost skew-shapes to initiate an inductive procedure which ultimately reduces to the classical Littlewood-Richardson rule for skew partitions.
