Product Overview
The Aerial Attack Football Machine uses two independently powered polyurethane throwing wheels, each driven by its own electric motor, to deliver right-footed deep spiral punts, end-over-end kickoffs, and both long and short passes. This dual-motor design eliminates the recovery lag common in single-motor competitors, giving coaches near-instant repetition for rapid-fire and multi-ball drills.
Built for programs on a tight budget, the machine still supports a wide range of drills without needing a live quarterback: interception drills, tip drills, harassment and zone-defense reps, prevent-defense and Hail Mary simulations, plus offensive route work like deep passes, comebacks, sideline outs, curls, and slants. On the kicking side, it handles squib kicks, pooch kicks, onside kicks, punt returns, and kickoff returns.
A universal ball cradle positions the football for passing, punting, or kickoffs without needing a second cradle, and a lever clamp lets operators safely tilt the throwing head to lock in the exact angle needed. The unit pivots instantly in any direction, so operators can lead receivers or place punts and kickoffs precisely for both return and coverage work.
Designed for high school, college, and professional-level play (based on official ball size), the Aerial Attack ships fully assembled and requires only that the tripod legs be attached—no tools needed. It rolls easily on and off the field using two oversized solid transporting wheels, while a steel-plated frame and sealed, maintenance-free bearings keep it weather-resistant and durable over time.
The AC Model runs on standard 110V power (a 220/240V version is also available) and draws just 1.5 continuous amps, making it compatible with long extension cords or a clean-electricity inverter generator for use on remote fields. Sports Attack backs the machine with a two-year warranty covering materials, workmanship, and wear components such as throwing wheels, controllers, and motors.
