The BALL DISRUPTOR is a belt with crisscrossing elastic straps that positions the football in such a way that it can be punched out with a sideways stroke of the fist or a downward chop. It simulates the secure position of a football when a ball carrier tucks it in his arms or clamps it to his chest. Excellent drill for DB’s and LB’s to get in the habit of attacking the football while pursuing a ball carrier. For the best results, fasten it to a pop-up dummy so a defender can go full speed and deliver a powerful punch to the ball as it is tackled to the ground. Fastening straps and buckles make it fast and easy to attach to a pop-up.
“The coaching point is to attack the football and cause a fumble!”
