Tackle Touch Game Tackling - R...

2 Teams Ball Bibs Tackle touch is a contact game that focuses on technique rather than the power of the contact. The game is a normal game of touch, however when a touch is made, both ball carrier and defender put their chests to the floor. They then bounce back up, for the defender to make a low chop tackle. This takes out alot of the power of the colision and means the defender can focus more on technique.
