Gridiron is one of the few sports that has a position for everyone, from your big 140kg line men, to your fast 60kg running backs. People with a footy background slot in well as receivers with the marking ability, and your ex rugby players make great defensive players with the emphasis on tackling people.

All players are also urged to watch the below 2 videos highlighting the importance of good tackling technical and the dramatic consequences for both the tacker and the person being tackled if they are not followed. This sort of injury has never occurred in Gridiron in WA and we want to keep it that way. Any questions talk to the coaches.
