i'm georgia and this is will i play for
0:02
wigan warriors ladies team i play winger
0:04
and today i'm going to talk you through
0:05
a tackling master class i'm going to get
0:14
okie dokie so when you get into tackling
0:16
no matter how big or small the person is
0:18
you need to get your body in front and
0:19
stay square okay so you're gonna shorten
0:22
your steps the closer you get and then
0:24
you're gonna have a lead foot okay
0:26
when you're running towards a person
0:28
that's running at you keep your body
0:30
square keeping on your toes and as
0:32
you're coming in you get your lead foot
0:34
in tight and then you get your shoulder
0:40
okay so once you get your feet in tight
0:42
so coming in lead foot you're going to
0:44
dip down so your right shoulder is going
0:46
to be right underneath the ledge on the
0:48
back and you're just going to push up
0:50
your power comes through your legs so
0:51
you're just going to push up and drive
0:53
through your legs backwards
1:00
so we use the term sit and hit so you're
1:02
going to sit down get nice and low make
1:03
sure your head's on the opposite side to
1:05
what shoulder you're hitting with okay
1:07
so once you've hit you grab hold and you
1:09
drive through with your legs make sure
1:11
that your head is on the opposite side
1:13
of your shoulder and you want to get
1:15
cheek to cheek so cheek to bum cheek
1:21
so in rugby league you generally tackle
1:22
a little bit higher than rugby union so
1:24
you've got the ball the carry the ball
1:26
carry will come into you you want to get
1:28
your shoulder in and you want to grab
1:30
hold of the tricep keep your head in
1:31
tight then the other side you're going
1:33
to have your arm underneath their armpit
1:35
squeezing so you've got a lever and you
1:37
can easily turn them over there's going
1:39
to be three people in a tackle usually
1:40
in rugby league so the top person's got
1:43
control the second person comes in
1:45
usually helps them put them to the floor
1:47
then the third person would come in and
1:49
chop the legs and take them down so it
1:52
needs to be on the floor for as long as
1:53
possible as long as the ref says and so
1:56
that it gives the team more time to get
1:57
back to defend there are also situations
2:00
in rugby league for my instance being on
2:02
the wing where it's one-on-one so the
2:04
player might try and step you as you're
2:06
squaring up to them okay so what you
2:08
have to do there in that situation if
2:10
they've stepped past you you just have
2:12
to reach around their legs and just grab
2:14
hold of their ankles nice and tight
2:16
squeezing their legs together so they
2:18
demonstration will's going to run at me
2:21
you just grab hold of the legs
2:23
so what happens quite often in rugby
2:25
league is people would go in with the
2:27
shoulder and not wrap their arms round
2:29
that would be a shoulder charge okay so
2:31
if will was to run at me and he was
2:32
running with the ball if i just smashed
2:35
my shoulder into him that would be a
2:38
then there's another um penalty or a
2:41
foul okay so if will was to run in and i
2:44
went to go and tackle him but it was
2:45
around his neck and above his shoulders
2:48
that would also be a high tackle so be a
2:49
penalty and a turnover to the other team
2:51
