👉 The tackle fluid, also known as tackle gel or tackle lubricant, is a specialized substance applied to the ball carrier before tackling to enhance performance and safety. It reduces friction between the ball and the tackler's hands, allowing for quicker and more controlled tackles. This fluid typically contains additives that break down water and other substances, preventing the ball from becoming too slippery and ensuring better grip on the ball. By improving the tackler's ability to control the ball during a tackle, the fluid helps minimize the risk of injury to both the tackler and the ball carrier, while also increasing the effectiveness of the tackle itself.
