Built For Contact Drills
Most shields force a tradeoff between a big hitting surface and something a coach can actually move around the field. The 28" Blocking Shield gives you the largest striking surface in Hadar's scrimmage shield line without turning into dead weight between reps. It is built for the daily grind of contact work, where the same shield gets hit hundreds of times a week.
The square-cornered configuration and rugged construction come straight from the SP66 Deluxe Scrimmage Shield, built with closed-cell foam and a heavy-duty vinyl cover. Reinforced handles let a coach or player hold steady through repeated contact, and the handle positioning means the same shield works as an arm pad when a drill calls for it.
Key Features
- Largest hitting surface
- Reinforced handles
- Doubles as arm pad
- Square-cornered design
- Closed-cell foam build
Custom Lettering, Logos, & Sizes
Every 28" Blocking Shield is handmade in our factory, so custom branding is available on any order. Putting your team name, mascot, or logo on the shield makes your sideline gear look like part of the program instead of generic equipment pulled from a catalog.
Key Features
- Team names
- Mascots
- School logos
- Custom colors
Built To Last
Contact shields take more abuse than almost anything else in the equipment room. The 28" Blocking Shield is handmade in Iowa with the same rugged construction as Hadar's Deluxe line, so the hitting surface holds up rep after rep, season after season.
Key Features
- Handmade In Iowa
- Heavy-Duty Vinyl Cover
- Reinforced Handle Stitching
- Holds Shape Under Impact
- Versatile Contact Use
- Square-Cornered Build
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can this shield be used as an arm pad?
Yes. The handle positioning lets all shields in this line double as an arm pad, so you can run more drills off a single piece of gear.
What's the difference between the 28" and 24" shield?
The 28″ has a larger hitting surface for full-body contact. The 24″ is a more compact option for tighter, faster reps.
Is this the same as the SP66 Deluxe shield?
It shares the same curved design and rugged construction. This is the standard square-cornered version, where the SP66 is the deluxe build.
Will this hold up to daily contact work?
Yes. It is built with closed-cell foam and a heavy-duty vinyl cover for repeated impact through a full season.
Can younger players handle this shield?
Yes. It is lightweight and versatile, so it works for youth through varsity programs.
Is this usable for rugby contact drills?
Yes. The large hitting surface and reinforced handles work for rugby contact and tackling work as well as football.
