Built For Developing Linemen
Middle school programs need sled work that matches the size of their athletes, not hand-me-down varsity gear that overwhelms them. The HX Middle School Football Sled uses three-quarter-sized pads on the same heavy-duty build as the varsity HX line, so younger players get realistic contact reps at a scale that fits them.
The unit is built on heavy-duty powder-coated steel with a kicked tail that drives forward, then lifts the full weight of the sled. There are no spring mechanisms to fall apart, rust, or fall off over a season of daily use. As athletes progress, the optional HXWA weight attachment adds resistance without replacing the sled.
Key Features
- Three-Quarter Sized Pads
- Powder-Coated Steel Frame
- Kicked Tail Drive
- No Spring Mechanisms
- Optional Weight Attachment
Custom Lettering, Logos, & Sizes
Custom branding is available on the HX Middle School Football Sled so the equipment reads as part of your program, not generic practice gear. Adding your identity to the pads makes the sled recognizable on the field and reinforces the program younger athletes are buying into.
Key Features
- Team names
- Mascots
- School logos
- Custom colors
Built To Last
The HX Middle School Sled is built to the same durability standard as Hadar's varsity sleds, just sized down. Medium carbon spring steel handles repeated contact, and the connection system uses stainless steel fasteners that hold up through daily use without tools to maintain.
Key Features
- Medium Carbon Steel
- Powder-Coated Finish
- Stainless Steel Fasteners
- No-Tool Adjustment
- HX Series Compatible
- Refurbishable Pads

What size programs is this sled for?
It is built for middle school and youth programs. The three-quarter-sized pads keep contact reps appropriate for younger, smaller athletes.
Can I add varsity HX pads later?

How many players can hit this sled?
The sled is configured by number of pads. Choose the pad count that matches your position groups and drill setup.
Can the resistance be increased?
Yes. The optional HXWA weight attachment lets you add load as athletes develop.
