About the event
Ever wondered what's really going on in top flight rugby league? About the intricate defensive operations that aren't always obvious on TV? Tackle U is delighted to invite you to our inaugural League Lab, an online interactive workshop where we'll be joined by former NRL & Super League enforcer, as well as former Queensland Cup Head Coach, Ben Cross, to talk us through the fundamentals of defence in rugby league. Attendees will also have the opportunity to put their burning questions directly to the former NSW Sky Blues women's State of Origin coach. This event is a must attend for coaches, players and students of the game who are looking to go a little deeper and enhance their rugby league IQ.
Ben Cross enjoyed a long and illustrious playing career in both the NRL and Super League with the Canberra Raiders, Newcastle Knights, Melbourne Storm, Leeds Rhinos, Wigan Warriors and Widnes Vikings - topped off with two State of Origin appearances for the New South Wales Blues. Ben graduated into coaching as the NSW Sky Blues Women's State of Origin Head Coach, as well as taking on the Head Coaching role at the Ipswich Jets Queensland Cup team, as well as coaching stints with the Brisbane Broncos and PNG Hunters.
Upon registering you will receive a calendar invitation for the meeting which will be held via Google Meet. We look forward to seeing you in the meeting!
