Episode 2: Elements Overview

In the second installment of this series, the Atavus crew outlines its approach to the pre-contact and contact elements of tackling.

Tackling is a skill. And while some people may have a natural talent for it, everyone has to constantly work at it to get better and improve. Players at any age and any skill level can continue to develop as an instinctual tackler through the Atavus Tackling System and its systematic approach to the technique.

This episode dives into the components of a great tackle, breaking down the situations and specific elements that make up a tackle and giving coaches the tools to understand it. 

Coaches and players will learn about two main components of the Atavus Tackle System throughout Episode 2: tackle situations and the tackle process. These key topics are the groundwork to great tackling, and will set the stage for a deeper look into tackle analysis in future episodes.
