"RUNNING WITH THE BALL
AVOIDING TACKLES.
(Note: The "cut" side refers to the side of the cut. The "other" refers to the opposite side.)
Cuts. Feet - Five yards in front of the defender, the player steps slightly to the opposite side of the cut. Two yards in front of the defender, the back pretends to make the cut to the opposite side with the "other foot." As the "other foot" touches the ground, the "other foot" pushes in the opposite direction. This forces the body into a forty-five degree angle to the cut side. The "cut foot" makes a short step to the side of the defender... Head/Shoulders - five yards in front of the defender, the head/shoulders jerk to the opposite side of the cut... Hands - hold the ball on the side furthest away from the tackler."
