Follow trainer Dean Rice as he goes outside to the park with one of the North Shore club players, and they find ways to train Rugby specific exercises. Be creative and have some fun with your players as you find ways to exercise and warm up around your ground.
Hawkes Bay Assistant coach Josh Syms introduces a couple of exercises that prime players for the tackle practice but also helps develop specific tackle technique. As always add a bit of competition and fun to the program.
Now you are warmed up and tackle focused onto tackling the New Tackle Laws. Manu Samoa and ex Blues Defence coach Al Rogers, with the help of Takapuna Grammar players, starts to change tackling habits with emphasis on targeting the knees in the tackle. Same shoulder, hand, and leg. Get low and head up watching the target. Hands behind the knee. Hit through the tackle.
Execute simple tackle technique and the outcome takes care of itself. Alastair, completes the tackle progression by challenging the players’ decision making and technique under pressure with positive results. Get off the line and meet the attacker. Self awareness of your skill execution. Positive effective tackle = unstable attacker.
