Jab  tackle  and  block  tackle      

Why:    

 

To  assist  players  with  their  body  positioning  and  tackling  technique,  and  to  promote  the  basic  principles  of  defensive.    

 

How  :      

 

Tackle  boxes  set  up  towards  the  left  and  right  side  of  the  head  of  the  circle.    After  completing  each  tackle  box,  attackers  join  the  queue  of  the  alternate  tackle  box.    Jab  and  block  tackle  boxes  to  be  switched  to  the  alternate  side  mid-­‐way  through  the  drill  so  that  each  technique  is  practised  on  both  sides  of  the  pitch.    1.        Jab  tackle  box  • Attackers  start  at  the  blue  cone  and  carry  the  ball  towards  the  defender  with  

the  aim  of  getting  through  the  green  gate.  • If  the  attacker  is  successful,  they  are  allowed  to  go  on  and  shoot  at  goal.  • Whether  successful  or  not,  the  attacker  then  joins  the  queue  awaiting  their  

turn  at  approaching  the  block  tackle  exercise.  • Defenders  are  alternated  every  6  to  8  turns.  

 

2.        Block  tackle  box  • Attackers  start  at  the  yellow  cone  and  carry  the  ball  towards  the  defender  

with  the  aim  of  getting  through  the  red  gate.  • If  the  attacker  is  successful,  they  are  allowed  to  go  on  and  shoot  at  goal.  • Whether  successful  or  not,  the  attacker  then  joins  the  queue  awaiting  their  

turn  at  approaching  the  jab  tackle  exercise.  • Defenders  are  alternated  every  6  to  8  turns.    

3.        Back  to  Basics  • Remove  the  shooting  element  of  the  drill  and  get  players  to  work  in  pairs  

with  a  basic  tackle  box.  Attackers  and  defenders  to  swap  every  6  turns.    

4.        Progression  • Increase  the  percentage  of  the  attackers  work/speed  to  the  appropriate  level.    

 

Coaching  Points:    

 

1.        Jab  Tackle  • Jab  tackler  must  stay  on  the  balls  of  their  feet,  balanced  and  keep  their  

distance.  • Jab  in  and  out  quickly  back  to  start  position  (think  of  a  lizard’s  tongue  flicking  

in  and  out).  • Two  hands  on  stick  apart  from  actual  ‘jab.’  

 

2.        One-­‐handed  Block  Tackle  • Basic  grip.  • Do  not  get  the  stick  down  early  (immobile  in  this  position),  but  tackle  at  the  

last  moment.  • Stick  at  right  angles  to  the  line  of  the  ball.  • Use  the  shaft  of  the  stick.  • Scan  for  passes.    

3.        Two-­‐handed  Block  Tackle  • One-­‐handed  grip.  • Can  use  right  or  left  hand,  depending  on  the  distance  needed  to  reach.

• Jab  first,  then  lay  the  stick  flat  on  the  floor,  tackle  at  the  last  moment.
