Eifion, Rugby Coach

DESCRIPTION

  1. Atacker runs around the cone and tries to sidestep past the defendor. Attacking players is only allowed one sidestep to the left or right.
  2. Defendor must run around the cone and get into correct body position, anticipating the sidestep, and tackling using correct tackle procedures.

COACHING POINTS

The emphasis here is for the defendor to practice proper technique in a head on tackle situation. The attacking players role is simply to sidestep and get tackled. We dont want heroics from the attacking player this drill is about the tackler.
