1v1 Tunnel

What a fantastic tool. I've found a few drills that are unfamiliar,...
Wes, Rugby Coach

DESCRIPTION

Two players start midway between a 10x5m grid on the long side. 

1 player is ball carrier, the other is tackler. 

both players run around the cone and through the tunner. Ball carrier has to stay between the cones but can juke or run through the defense. 

Tackler has to try to bring the player down. 

Ball carrier wins if they touch it down past the far cones. Defense wins if they can get the tackler down. 

whoever loses has to run to a far cone and back. 

COACHING POINTS

tackler needs to gain momentum and not stop when the ball carrier approaches. hit low, wrap and drive. 

Ball carrier should remember to not slow down as the tackler approaches. protect the ball the whole time. and keep their legs moving (high knees helps break tackles)
