Pre-Season Contact

Today I led the Redbank Bears Men’s Rugby League squad through a contact-focused session. With the season still in its early phase, the emphasis was on refining clinch takedown mechanics and improving post-contact control.

One of the primary drills was:

Sprawl → Turtle → Takedown

This drill targets the scramble phase immediately after initial contact. The objective is simple: establish dominant control quickly. If control is not secured within the prescribed time window, the rep is terminated and reset.

The standard is clear — win the scramble fast or concede the exchange.
