Equipment - Tackle Buddy

The Big Hit inflatable tackle buddy is a 40-inch, sand-weighted tackle bag. It gives young players a safe, soft target for practising their first rugby tackles. It pops back up after every hit and packs down small when training is over.

It's made for mini and junior rugby coaches, parents with rugby-mad children in the back garden, and schools introducing contact skills. It also works for fun fitness and play sessions with younger children.
