Testimonials

  • "Atavus is working hard to develop ways that allow coaches to teach their players the appropriate way to tackle. At all levels, players and coaches need to be educated on the proper ways to tackle, and the dangers of improper tackling."

    Bobby Wagner

    Linebacker – Los Angeles Rams
  • "Atavus gives us tools to coach a dominant tackle and measure on-field performance, but they also educate us on doing it safely so our best players stay on the field."

    Chris Ash

    DB's Coach – Las Vegas Raiders
  • "Atavus helped me improve my tackling and as a complete LB. They helped me become more aware of which side I was more dominant on and showed me my average yards after contact."

    Shaq Thompson

    Linebacker – Carolina Panthers
  • "I insist that all Lipscomb coaches are certified on the Atavus Tackling System. We’ve built their training into every practice and integrated Atavus tackling into the Lipscomb football culture."
