Description
Pop-Up Dummy — Reactive, High-Durability Training Tool for Tackling, Block-Shedding & Contact Skills
The Pop-Up Dummy is a versatile football training tool engineered to help athletes safely develop tackling fundamentals, block-shedding technique, and controlled contact execution. Designed with weighted bases and high-rebound foam, the dummy springs back into position after impact—allowing coaches to run continuous, high-repetition drills without resetting equipment. Their ability to pop back up instantly makes them ideal for repetitive technique training and fast-paced stations.
Pop-Up Dummies are used to:
-
Practice tackling technique without player-to-player collisions
-
Train block-shedding, hand placement, and strike timing
-
Build reaction skills as the dummy returns upright after impact
-
Improve footwork, pad level, and controlled approach to contact
-
Simulate stationary or semi-moving opponents for defensive and special teams drills
Importance for Player Safety
Pop-Up Dummy training significantly enhances player safety by:
-
Reducing human-contact reps, lowering risks of head, shoulder, and joint injuries
-
Teaching safer form tackling—head up, eyes through contact, and shoulder-first impact
-
Creating a controlled environment, allowing athletes to practice aggressive movements without unpredictable collisions
-
Encouraging proper hand placement for linemen and defenders, helping prevent hand, wrist, and shoulder strain
-
Supporting progressive contact development, especially for youth and newer players
Because the dummy absorbs and redistributes impact, athletes can train hard while minimizing physical stress.
Example Drills with Pop Up Dummy
- Form Tackle & Reset Drill – Players drive through the dummy; it pops back up, allowing immediate repeat reps for consistent form reinforcement.
- Block-Shedding Drill – Defenders strike the dummy with proper hand placement, shed to either side, and finish with pursuit steps.
- Angle Attack Drill – The dummy is placed at an angle; athletes take proper pursuit angles and execute a technically sound tackle.
- Pop-Up Reaction Drill – Players strike the dummy, backpedal or shuffle, and then react to a coach’s signal to attack again once it pops up.
- Special Teams Fit Drill – Athletes work on lane integrity and controlled strikes, using the dummy to absorb the initial contact safely.
Pop Up Dummies are top equipment products together with Hand Shields and Step Over Bags in every team set.
