  • Setup

    If you have 20 players and several bags then split into 2 groups, otherwise have one main group and use several balls.
  • Step 1

    (A) runs and performs a solid tackle on the tackle bag held by a coach with a ball placed on top
    Emphasis on getting down low with tackle at hip height - the player should go to ground as a result
  • Step 2

    (A) must recover quickly and gather the spilled ball. Meanwhile (B) has made good position for (A) to dish out hands without having to turn.
  • Step 3

    (B) kicks to (C) who is leading towards (D)
  • Step 4

    (D) marks and handballs to coach once the tackle bag has been reset upright.
