Course reviews

The tracking part is a fantastic skill that is definitely overlooked and under coached. Great vid – thanks!

England

One of the best vids on the site. This is hardly coached to lower age players and is vital to help them be more confident in the tackle. Please don’t use shields, hands on hips far better.
