Senior Tackle Ring

The Rhino Senior Tackle Ring is one of the leading products in Rugby and American Football for developing technical skill in the tackle contest. The Rhino Ring is a revolutionary piece of equipment with perfect size, weight and feel, that enables athletes to safely work on correct tackle technique on a moving target. Key concepts of the Tackle Ring are to simulate a ball carrier on the run, allow wrapping of the arms, and the ability to track the target at a realistic angle. The ring shape allows the player to fully wrap the arms and drive through the pad, completing a successful tackle. This piece of equipment brings the game full circle with straps for a rugby ball or football, encouraging the players to work to their feet quickly after making a tackle and stealing or picking up the ball.

PROS TO THE SENIOR TACKLE RING:
The ring takes a boring and uninspiring activity of hitting tackle
bags at practice, and makes it a much more technical and rewarding experience. It is also great for:

• Players new to rugby or football
• Creating safer and higher tackle success rates for players
• Teaching proper tackle technique
• Adding new drills to practice
• Building faster instincts for poaching and fumble recovery

Safety:

• The movement of the ring creates what is traditionally a static target into a moving one. This movement allows the tackler to track the bag and use proper shoulder and head placement to successfully (and safely) complete his or her tackle.
• Teaches the “Hawk” tackle technique which is a rugby style approach
• Using the ring at tackling practice means the days of players tackling players, and risking injuring one another, are over.

Can be used to practice an array of different tackles:

• Front on tackle
• Side on tackle
• Pursuit tackle
• Diagonal tackle

Dimensions:

• 47" diameter
• 10” width
• 21 pounds
• Ball not included
• 1 year guarantee

Tackling Cues: If the tacklers aim is too high on the ring they will roll over the top of the bag (simulating a stiff arm). If their aim is too low, then they will not get a solid hold on their target, and the bag will roll or tumble over them (simulating a tackler breaking free). However, if the tackler is able to connect solidly with the sweet spot on the bag (the middle of the bag simulating legs/hips of an opponent), then they will get a firm grip and send it backwards in the collision.
