ABSTRACT  The aims of this study were to test the change and retention of player's overall tackling technique and technical components following a player‐specific video‐based technical feedback and instruction intervention on both their dominant and non‐dominant shoulders. Twenty‐four ( n  = 24) rugby union players participated in a non‐randomized control‐intervention, which consisted of a video‐based technical feedback and instruction group (video‐based technical feedback) and a no video‐based technical feedback and instruction group (control). During 3 sessions (baseline, intervention, retention) separated by one week, participants in each group performed six tackles (3 tackles on each shoulder) on a tackle simulator. In total, 432 tackles (video‐based technical feedback = 216, control = 216) were analysed. Each tackle was analysed using a standardized list of technical criteria (arbitrary units, AU). For the dominant shoulder, tackling technique scores significantly improved from baseline to intervention for both groups. For the non‐dominant shoulder, only the video‐based technical feedback group improved their tackling technique from baseline to intervention (baseline 6.89 [6.33–7.45] AU vs. intervention 7.72 [7.35–8.10] AU  p  = .001, ES = 0.60  moderate ). For the retention session, the video‐based technical feedback group scored significantly higher than the control group, for dominant (video‐based technical feedback 8.00 [7.60–8.40] AU vs. control 7.22 [6.83–7.62] AU  p  = .014, ES = 0.66 moderate) and non‐dominant (video‐based technical feedback 8.11 [7.81–8.41] AU vs. control 7.22 [6.90–7.55]  p  = .004, ES = 0.96 moderate) tackles. This study demonstrates the efficacy of video‐based technical feedback as a method to optimize tackle training for player safety and performance.
