Choose your lane

How it works

1. Two lanes side by side. The top lane is tag; the bottom lane has kneeling tacklers.
2. Each player chooses which lane to run every time.
3. Count contact lane runs as a team and celebrate when the total goes up.

Coaching points

• The choice is real. Never push anyone into the contact lane.
• Nervous players often try the contact lane once they've watched others.
• Let players who go to the contact lane early be tacklers too.

Ready for the next level when: Most of the squad is choosing the contact lane on their own.
