Atavus Introduces Tackling Solution for Individual Football Coaches Focused on Improved Performance and Safety

SEATTLE, July 16, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Atavus, the leader in football coach education and tackling assessment, today announced the launch of Atavus Edge, an online coaching resource that provides the basics of the Atavus Tackle System at a price affordable to individual coaches. Including more than 30 videos on core concepts, fundamental, decision-making, and game-based drills, related drill sheets, and tackling certification, Atavus Edge teaches shoulder-led tackling technique that is both high performance and reduces risk of injury.

With tens of thousands of football coaches already using the Atavus Tackle System through Tacklytics™, certification, clinics, and other Atavus products, Atavus Edge provides a new option for coaches who want to bring shoulder-led tackling technique to their teams. Atavus Edge provides coaches with the same technique and drills used by elite football programs at every level of the game, and is the first time that Atavus tackling certification is available through an individual subscription.

"Atavus Edge makes available the tackling technique used by our clients and partners in the pros and highest level of the college game," said Rex Norris, head of football programming at Atavus. "However, Atavus Edge is also very practical and focuses on implementation of the technique through drill videos and practice plans that help the coach take the concepts onto the field."

With Atavus Edge, coaches can:

• Increase player safety – Reduce the likelihood of injury by removing the head from tackling; keep players on the field.
• Improve performance – See better defensive results by using a proven technique focused on skill acquisition and retention.
• Develop effective tacklers – Teach effective tackling with easy-to-implement, time-saving techniques and tools.

The Atavus Tackle System is the most comprehensive tackling performance and safety system at any level of the game. Atavus moves the head to the side and out of the tackle, reducing unnecessary head contact and reducing the risk of injury. As a result, the Atavus approach maximizes power and control, leading to more effective tacklers.

Regularly priced at $89 for an annual subscription, Atavus Edge is offered now at an introductory price of $49 for the first year.
