Description
Arm Pads — Versatile Contact Training Tool for Tackling Precision, Hand Placement & Control
Arm Pads are lightweight, handheld training tools designed to help athletes refine tackling accuracy, hand placement, and controlled striking technique. Typically worn or held by coaches, these pads provide small, targeted surfaces that require players to focus on precision, balance, and clean mechanics during contact. Built with durable, shock-absorbing foam and reinforced grip handles, arm pads support fast, repetitive technique work with minimal impact stress. Because of their compact size, arm pads help athletes focus on accuracy and controlled movement rather than full-force impact.
Arm Pads are used to:
-
Develop accurate hand placement for linemen, linebackers, and defensive backs
-
Train proper strike precision—targeting chest plate, shoulder, or rib area safely
-
Improve wrapping and tackling mechanics in tight spaces
-
Enhance reaction training, letting coaches move the pad to simulate ball-carrier motion
-
Support quick-footwork and fit-up drills without heavy contact equipment
Importance for Player Safety
Arm Pads play a significant role in safe, low-impact contact training:
-
Reduce collision stress by offering a padded striking surface instead of body-to-body contact
-
Promote safe tackling mechanics, such as keeping the head up and wrapping with correct shoulder leverage
-
Help prevent hand and wrist injuries, giving players a soft but stable target to strike
-
Allow high-repetition technique work without fatigue or excessive wear on joints
-
Create controlled drill environments, perfect for teaching fundamentals before adding full-speed contact
Smaller pads encourage technique over brute force, making them ideal for youth programs, early-season training, and position-specific refinement.
Example Drills with Arm Pads
- Hand-Placement Strike Drill – Players strike the arm pad with precise inside-hand placement, focusing on leverage and tight elbows.
- Fit & Form Tackle Drill – Athletes track the coach, fit up on the pad, and execute a clean shoulder wrap without high-impact collisions.
- Reaction Tackle Drill – The coach moves the arm pad side-to-side; players mirror, break down, and tackle with controlled accuracy.
- Press & Shed Drill – Defenders strike the pad, extend their arms, and practice shedding to either side using proper technique.
- DB Angle Fit Drill – Defensive backs take pursuit angles toward the pad, working on balance, clean leverage, and proper wrap-up mechanics.
Arm Pads are key equipment products together with other Hand Shields Step Over Bags and Pop Up Dummies in every team set.
