Developed With Richie Gray – Precision Contact Development
The Gilbert Line Breaker Contact Shield is part of Gilbert’s specialist tackle and breakdown training range, created in consultation with international coach Richie Gray. This shield is designed to improve the initial contact phase, body-height control and follow-through during ball carry in a safe and controlled environment.
Train Ball-Cary Mechanics With Accuracy
Using the Line Breaker Shield, players can work on:
- Dropping body height before contact
- Targeting the edge of the shield with a late step
- Using accurate shoulder placement
- Maintaining control through and after collision
- Developing balance, timing and strong follow-through
Coaches can position the shield at different heights to challenge technique and ensure players adapt their movement patterns as they would in a live match situation.
Safe, Controlled Technique Before Going Live
This shield allows clubs and schools to introduce contact mechanics progressively. Players refine:
- Footwork
- Tracking
- Body posture
- Acceleration into contact
- Controlled finish position
before moving into full-contact or dynamic game play.
