In a 2001 Illinois All Star vs. Indiana All Star match, Coach Floyd is creating the angle to make a good head behind, cheek to cheek tackle.


I was of the impression that our  foot position in a scrum was with the feet parallel to each other.  #8 here is the only one with the proper technique! 

 

 

All abord. The Express train is moving on.

 

 

 

 

 

Base ball bat at it's best.  The ball is away, the base is about to be set and the bat is at the ready. Magic space is gone so the MC guy is going to take the tackle on HIS terms.

 

The Brother Rice defender doesn't stand a chance.
