Crocodile river

How it works

1. Crocodiles kneel in the river. Runners walk across carrying a ball.
2. Crocodiles tackle from their knees: cheek on the hip, wrap, roll.
3. Swap roles after 3 crossings. Speed up to a brisk walk when ready.

Coaching points

• Tackler's head goes behind the ball carrier's backside, cheek to the hip.
• Arms wrap and squeeze, like a hug.
• Ball carriers fall and roll as practised in Level 1.

Ready for the next level when: Tacklers are wrapping cleanly with their heads in the right place nearly every time.
