The aim of this session is to develop positive and correct contact habits through repetitive practice of tackling and rucking techniques.
What's in the Session?
We start by bringing it back to basics and warm players up for the session ahead. Focus on light tackle and ruck technique before lifting the intensity up a notch.
This session focusses on driving good habits in contact. Hitting low as the tackler to chop the opponent, positive leg drive as the clear out player, bounce out in attack to find the edge, quick ball presentation and more. All to instil confidence in your players going into the matches ahead.
Suitable for players of all abilities.
