Tackle football has the highest number of injuries in contact sports. Certain injuries in the head and neck may severely impact the player's physical, neurological, and physiological functionality, even sudden death, as well as the quality of their personal life in the long run. These injuries commonly occur during a collision when a defender is attempting to tackle an opponent, particularly when the defender's head being down, and neck being curved. To reduce and prevent injuries as such from early on, this column breaks down the essential techniques for two types of tackles and recommends the proper training procedure to coaches.
