The Tackle Tube develops the skill of tackling in a revolutionary new way.
The Tackle Tube is a dynamic tool that facilitates correct tackle positioning and hones judgement and timing. Correct tackling technique is one of the essential core skills for all rugby players. Having the correct technique increases player safety, which is of paramount importance.
This equipment not only builds confidence and makes training fun, hand-eye coordination is improved, body lines and agility increase, resulting in consistently high accuracy rates. The range of options for tackling from all angles keeps training fresh and enthusiasm high as it simulates real game situations. It also provides a great fitness workout!
The Tackle Tube is made from high density energy absorbent foam and it is covered with high quality PVC. The Tackle Tube will not deflate or lose its shape.
Tackle Zone: The white centre of the Tackle Tube is designed to orientate the player and focus the mind. It gives the player a focal point heading in to make the tackle, and again once the tackle has been made and they're back up on their feet to turn over the ball. The white Tackle Zone indicates where the attacking player would hold the ball, and where the defending player needs to focus. This is where all the action takes place.
The lightest Tackle Tube - low density foam allows young players to gain confidence while still enabling more experienced young players to make solid contact.
