Helmetless Tackling

Great article on a great way to teach/train safer tackling technique.

http://mmqb.si.com/2014/12/04/helmetless-football-practice-university-of-new-hampshire/

Discuss below.

You can teach the best tackling techniques for youth football with the Gridiron Tech roll tackle ring  or with the SafeTackle Tackle Ring which provides a way to teach full speed tackling without player on player contact.

Ban helmets and tackling until high school to increase the number of participants, avoid the development of bad habits formed during subpar volunteer coaching, and have properly trained high school coaches on how to implement this technique.

I like all of that.
