This drill is made to improve tackling and running with the ball. The black circles are tackle bags meaning both players have to complete 3 tackles before getting to either end. Give the ball to the red player after they have tackled the 3 tackle bags. Then make sure boht players are at either end and let them go. The blue player is aiming to tackle the red player before they get to the other end. The channel shouldnt be very wide.
