Build Better Tackles – Safely and Effectively

The Rhino Rugby Junior Tackle Ring is designed to encourage coaches and players alike to develop dynamic skills in and around the most crucial area of the modern game - the tackle contest. The Junior Tackle Ring is a revolutionary piece of equipment that enables you to work on correct tackle technique without player on player contact. One of the key components of the Tackle Ring is that it simulates a tackle on the run thus giving the player feedback on the angle and timing of the tackle. The Tackle Ring brings the game full circle as there are straps for a ball which encourages the player to get off the ground after making a tackle and work on their technique for stealing/slowing up the ball.

Why It’s Safer

The movement of the ring creates an inside and an outside of what is traditionally a static target. This movement allows the tackler to differentiate between the inside and outside of the bag, so they can get used to using the correct shoulder and head placement (on the inside of the target). This technique is very ‘rugby’ orientated approach which is typically proven to be safer and lead to less concussions than a ‘football’ style tackle.
