The Rhinelander youth football program recently added a new tool to its kit to help teach young players the proper way to tackle.

The program purchased tackling rings, similar to what the Green Bay Packers use at training camp, albeit at a smaller scale.

Pictured above right, fourth-grader Dom Lehmann demonstrates how to tackle using the ring during a practice Tuesday, Oct. 4 at Sarocka Field.

Pictured right, Lehmann and coach Brett Chariton pose with the ring. The purchase of the equipment was made possible thanks to a nearly $1,200 grant from the Rhinelander Athletic Booster Club.
