Morgan Elite Rugby Tackling Hit Shield | Advanced Contact & Tackle Training Shield

The Morgan Elite Rugby Tackling Hit Shield is a specialised contact-training tool designed to help rugby coaches develop correct tackling technique, body positioning and footwork in controlled training environments. Its distinctive extended upper section provides an additional contact surface, giving coaches greater versatility when working through tackling, driving and body-position drills. Constructed from heavy-duty 1000D rip-stop vinyl and filled with Australian-made medium-high density closed-cell foam, the shield is built to withstand repeated contact during club and academy training. A double-layer strike zone with a contrasting red panel provides athletes with a clear visual target, helping coaches reinforce accurate contact positioning. Extended forearm straps and an extra-long plastic tube handle give the holder multiple secure gripping options during progressive contact sessions.
