The rugby seasons starting soon and its been a long time since I've played it, and I've lost a little confidence since due to a shoulder injury, I am only 13 soon to be 14, I'm 5'11 so I've towered over anybody I play against, but I'm now scared to tackle, what can I do?The rugby seasons starting soon and its been a long time since I've played it, and I've lost a little confidence since due to a shoulder injury, I am only 13 soon to be 14, I'm 5'11 so I've towered over anybody I play against, but I'm now scared to tackle, what can I do?

Take it step by step don't tackle full force just take it easy for a bit and you will get more confident to see that nothing bad happened. Just wrap up tightly and don't let the big guys run through you. Get your confidence up because you will have to tackle loads when you play.
