“I was no different from any other parent. I was worried my son might get hurt, but now I had 25 other sons to worry about. So I just prayed and the idea came to me!  I just never wanted to see any of those kids not be able to get up because they tackled wrong for me!  I watched and was amazed at how fast DipNRipSticks built individual confidence and brought out the best in the entire team.  They did it right and they did it good…it’s simply a better way to instruct safe, effective tackling.”
