Tackling is part of the sport. It's something you can't avoid, and since it's something you must do, it's best if you learn how to and when to. In order to be a great tackler, a player must have a desire to make the hit. As well as eyes, having the vision to focus on the ball and getting after it. There are multiple types of tackling forms. Profile tackling is effective when you're coming from the side, a shoulder angle tackle. Trunk to Trunk tackling is a close-quarter shoulder to body impact. Strike tackling is a form of attacking the body and lifting simultaneously, attempting to carry and flip the runner. The last chance is the hail mary of tackles, jumping as far as you can to wrap the legs, clip the heels and hold on. Lastly a knockback, the bone crusher hit, the highlight reel tackle.
