Abstract:
A football tackling practice assembly for learning a safe tackling method includes a pair of tubes, a crossbeam, and a dummy. Each tube comprises a plurality of nested sections so that the tube is selectively extensible. The crossbeam is coupled to a top of each tube and extends between the tubes. Each of a pair of bases is coupled to and extends perpendicularly from a bottom of a respective tube. The bases are configured to support the tubes perpendicularly to a surface. A first fastener is coupled to the crossbeam. A second fastener is coupled a helmet that is coupled to a head of the dummy. The second fastener is complementary to the first fastener and is positioned to reversibly couple to the first fastener to couple the dummy to the crossbeam so that the dummy is configured to be tackled by a user.

Claim (Index 1):
A football tackling practice assembly comprising:\n a pair of tubes, each said tube comprising a plurality of nested sections such that said tube is selectively extensible; a crossbeam coupled to a top of each said tube and extending between said tubes; a pair of bases, each said base being coupled to and extending perpendicularly from a bottom of a respective said tube wherein said bases are configured for supporting said tubes perpendicularly to a surface; a first fastener coupled to said crossbeam, said first fastener comprising a rod coupled to and extending from said crossbeam equally distant from said tubes such that said rod extends perpendicularly to a plane defined by said tubes and said crossbeam, said rod being tubular; a dummy; a helmet coupled to a head of said dummy; a second fastener coupled to said helmet, said second fastener being complementary to said first fastener wherein said second fastener is positioned for reversibly coupling to said first fastener for coupling said dummy to said crossbeam wherein said dummy is configured for tackling by a user, said second fastener comprising a ring wherein said ring is positioned for inserting said rod for coupling said dummy to said crossbeam wherein said ring is positioned for sliding off said rod for decoupling said dummy from said crossbeam upon tackling of said dummy by the user; a first power module coupled to and positioned in said rod; a sensor coupled to and positioned in said rod, said sensor being operationally coupled to said first power module wherein said sensor is configured for detecting decoupling of said ring from said rod; a transmitter coupled to and positioned in said rod, said transmitter being operationally coupled to said first power module and said sensor wherein said transmitter is configured for receiving a signal from said sensor upon the user tackling said dummy and for transmitting a respective phrase; a second power module coupled to said dummy; a speaker coupled to said head of said dummy, said speaker being operationally coupled to said second power module; and a receiver coupled to said dummy, said receiver being operationally coupled to said second power module wherein said receiver is positioned for receiving the respective phrase from said transmitter and for signaling said speaker for broadcasting the respective phrase to the user.
