Summary
My research project topic looked into the effects of dangerous tackles in high-school rugby league, furthermore, it assessed how these tackles can either be banned or retraining take place within a school in order to reduce the risk of injury caused by dangerous tackling. The research processes I used included a variety of primary and secondary sources including surveys, interviews, internet research and personal experiences playing at club level. I chose to do an essay because it presented the arguments about tackling and what the school can do to improve the situation.

This amazing opportunity helped to receive the answers I needed for the project, but his insights into making the game safer will allow many other kids like myself to continue playing the sport we love. Although time limited how much time I could spend with Galloway, I appreciated his insight and his information certainly improved the authenticity and validity of my findings.
Another challenge I had faced was the number of websites with decent information and this stopped me from having relevant and reliable opinions on the topic. Although it was a time consuming process to go through and see if the information was similar to the book I read and the conversation with Galloway, the extremely biased sites were obvious and I did not use most of these for my references.
