How do build enough to take someone down?

Question

Now i know how to tackle but i still dont know how build enough momentum to make that tackle

Answer 1

you need to be getting low when you tackle and bending your knees and wraping your arms around him to make the momentum to make that tackle you just need to do that and have power in your legs to make the person with the ball go backwords.

Answer 2

There are very seldom chances in a game to "build up momentum". Tackles usually take place by proper positional play and you should be in the right spot to make the tackle. Getting out of position to make a lights out hit will pay off occasionally but more often you will get burned and earn the wrath of your coach. Most good slobberknockers occur when the offensive player doesnt see you so the times will come and you will get a good shot in on occasion but let them happen,dont try to create a situation for it to happen.
