"Hello, I'm Coach Bobby Hosea and welcome to my website. According to medical experts, each season, Tackle Football Players suffer many thousands of Brain,
Neck and Spinal Cord injuries. The greatest majority of these types of
injuries are the direct result of players initiating contact with their
helmet to make tackles. In 1997, to help lower the risk of head
injuries that result from poor and dangerous tackling techniques, I
developed the Dip-N-Rip-Sticks "WORDS TO PLAY BY" 12-Step Tackle Progression to
teach players how to IDENTIFY & AVOID the physical mechanisms that
lead directly to headfirst impact when attempting to tackle a ball
carrier. For more than a decade, my unique system of tackling
education and training has EMPOWERED players
to better protect themselves and their opponents from needless head
injuries and it also dramatically improves tackling efficiency as well. It will do the same for you!"
