When I look at races it says that the can only get A skills, even the squigs.
Then when I look at some of the teams on this site I find them full of dodging, blocking squigs Surprised

I´ve just rolled a doub. 5 for my first skill and are lost for what to take.

Hope someone can help me here.

Yes indeed, they can only take agility skills. Shocked
Catch and Diving Catch on a squig are a bit crazy, aren't they?
If it's a squig you got the double5 on I would prefer block, or maybe pro (since they have 2 nasty negatraits), on a hopper the extra movement is fine, too.

Tackle: Players will always try to dodge away from you... and will waste RRs...

Yup I agree, Tackle all the way, plus might help offensively vs those pesky stunties

I think block or tackle would be nice. I would still try to dodge away from a squig as I may be more likely to injure myself if I stick around than if I fall over on my own. I like block because it protects the fragile AV 7 squigs from the opponent's Big Guys a little better. Otherwise with two dice, and a BG who has both block and tackle (and most take block first) will knock you down 75% of the time instead of approximately 55%.

Imagine, a squig with MA6 could make 3 leaps with its "implanted pogo stick".

Block. Definitely. Less turnovers. OFAB and Really Stupid cause enough of those as it is. Not to mention his lifespan extends on the LoS, where really stupid Squigs eventually end up to protect the precious remaining herders.
