    REAR TACKLE
All open play 1v1 tackles from the rear must be delivered below the base of the sternum.
  DOUBLE TACKLE
If two defenders both deliver a tackle to the ball carrier both defenders must make contact below the base of the sternum. A rip for the ball must not be attempted above the base of the sternum.
  BALL CARRIER RESPONSIBILITY
The ball carrier must not dip into the tackle to the extreme that would bring the tack- ler and ball
carriers heads into the same space.
 THE PICK AND DRIVE
The Pick and Drive has been deemed low risk for head injuries due to the low velocity of both the ball carrier and defender and resulting the law in this area of the game to be unchanged. However, if the ball carrier makes the decision to rise upright from the contact area, from their initial low pick and drive position, this action results in the application of the new Tackle Height Law.
