Tackle Technique and Changes in Playerload™ During a Simulated Tackle: An Exploratory Study [PDF]
Journal of Sports Science and Medicine, 2022 In collision sports, the tackle has the highest injury incidence, and is key to a successful performance. Although the contact load of players has been measured using microtechnology, this has not been related to tackle technique. The aim of this study was to explore how PlayerLoad™ changes between different levels of tackling technique during a ...
