发明名称 TACKLE PRACTICE APPARATUS AND A METHOD FOR PRACTISING TACKLING IN A CONTACT SPORT
摘要 Tackle practice apparatus (1) comprises an inflatable dummy element (3) in the shape of a person, and is releasably coupled to an inflatable ground engaging sled (4) from which a rope (5) extends to a harness (6) which is releasably coupleable to a person for pulling the tackle practice apparatus across a playing pitch for tackle practice by a player. The dummy element (3) comprises a base element (9) and an inflatable central bladder (7) extending upwardly from the base element (9). Two inflatable lower peripheral bladders (10) and two inflatable upper peripheral bladders (13) extend around the central bladder (7). The lower peripheral bladders (10) are located below a waist high position (14). The base element (9) comprises an inflatable first base bladder (15) which is inflatable with water to provide ballast to the dummy element (3), and an inflatable second base bladder (16) above the first base bladder (15) from which the central bladder (7) extends. On the dummy element (3) being correctly tackled below the waist high position (14) by a player, air from the central bladder (7) is expelled through a whistle (31), thus indicating a correct tackle. The sled (4) comprises an inflatable ring (21).
