I want to thank you for yesterday''s camp for my son.  He walked away with a lot more confidence and in knowledge in his snapping.

PARENT, 2009, IN

Rubio, Six camps, about 15, 042 miles and more then 30 highlight films later we've finally done it. I''m going to college in the big time. I say WE''VE done it because I would not have been able to et this far without your help. Since my first camp sophomore year I was amazed at the wealth of knowledge you have about snapping. I can truthfully say I am lucky to have been able to learn from someone of your caliber. You have probably forgotten in all of your years of experience than I could ever hope to learn. You are more than I could have ever asked for in a snapping coach and a friend. You have helped make me who I am and and you are the reason I can play at such a top quality school. I can''t thank you enough for everything you have done to help me along the way

Regardless of what happens with his football career, you and your program are helping my son become an even better person and student than he already was. I am sure that years from now he will look back and consider you to be one of the more influential and important people that helped shape and influence the person he becomes in his adult life."

"Just wanted to thank you for the help you offered to my son with his long snapping during your recent clinic in So Cal.We took the pointers you offered from my son's film analysis and he has been working hard with regular practice to really improve his weaknesses.He has already been offered a walk on spot at a Division 2 college and is being actively recruited by two of the top junior colleges in Northern California.That''s why I''m writing now, he went for a workout yesterday at one of the Junior Colleges and the Special Teams coach challenged him to a long snapping test right on the spot with several players on the team watching.He had my son do 5 snaps from the goal line with a target of hitting the goal post (12 yards) -- he then had him do 5 snaps from the PAT hold line (15 yards).My son hit the goal post (NO PAD AROUND IT--just the 8 inch stem pipe) 4 out of 5 times on BOTH TESTS -- and just missed on the other two. While they weren't timed, when they hit the goal post it rang like a bell and the players watching were like "whoa--we got a long snapper!" So I took that as a good sign.The Coach was impressed and indicated to my son he would have an excellent chance to start as a Freshman if he goes to this school.I really give you a lot of credit for building Daniel''s confidence and inspiring him to take his work ethic to another level which allowed him to produce these "results under pressure"He still has work to do to get to his goals, but he has come a long way since your clinic and I just wanted to thank you for all you do for guys like my son."

"Hi Rubio,I wanted to thank you for yet another extremely well run Camp in Dallas on Sunday. You have an awesome way of remembering each boy''s name and knowing exactly what you tell or say to them and using it to enrich the video sessions, that is very impressive. The video sessions are great because the boys can hear what you have to say about each participant and use it for their own good. The recruiting session you did this time was spot on information that not only the boys need to hear but very good for parents like me where this is the first time sending a child off to college.
Thank you for your honest critique on my son. He gets so much out of your camps, from getting back to the basic fundamentals of Snapping to knowing exactly what he needs to work on and how to do it ~ and...he always leaves with more confidence.
Also thanks so much for sitting with us at lunch, my son really enjoyed that a lot. I really meant it when I said that we are glad that we found you.
I was going to add that the way you run your organization is top notch and the way you relate to the boys makes them feel like they have an instant friend that is truly interested in doing something positive for them. That is so important at this time in their lives. So just know you are appreciated for all you do for my son. We look forward to Vegas next month and California in July and hopefully a time or two in between."

"Coach Rubio,
Thanks for the detailed feedback. I've been to a lot of camps for all my sports since I was little, including all my positions in football, but I honestly have to say, your camp in Charlotte was the most technically informative, thorough, and fun in the shortest amount of time. I think we got a lot accomplished, and I know I learned a lot. (I've been practicing and doing the drills already so I can move up the ranks in Las Vegas.) Your response time to my questions and the quality of your feedback is unbelievable. I really appreciate it and am hopeful that it (along with the hard work I''ll put in to improve) will help land me in a good place for college. You have a great coaching style, too. You definitely don''t hold back, but you deliver your message in the most constructive and motivating way. I've had a lot of coaches, and not many can do that."

My son met and made some new friends from around the country and learned a great deal from the college guys. It is nice that you have them come work with the high school guys as it allows them to see where they need to be for the next level. Looking forward to May and next Jan!"

Coach Rubio,
I have to tell you how much fun I had at the camp on 10/11. This was the first camp I attended with my son and husband and I must tell you I had a lot of fun. My husband has told me how much you care about all of the boy''s and after seeing it first hand I must tell you I''m impressed. I enjoyed every aspect of the day and by days end I felt connected with both you and all of the other parents. I''m so impressed by the "family atmosphere" and the fact that the parents from all over the Midwest and beyond, all seem to become friends.
I can''t thank you enough for all of your help and guidance. My son really looks up to you, and I think you are a great role model. My son has become much more confident in his skills and I love being the long snappers Mom. I just want to say thank you again, you have had a major role in our sons success.

"Thank you for the encouragement my son came home with, he came home mad (that''s motivated man). He felt like he was better than he showed and he felt like he should have made the top 12 finale. So Monday here he comes in the room with his new "goal sheet" to get ready for the next camp and go against the best of the best. Knowing his mind set and the fact he puts all his goals on paper and reads them everyday he''ll be ready.
He had a great time and had the opportunity to meet some other great kids from around the country. Be ready for e-mails! Thank you again for all your hard work with all the young men. Not just football, but their preparation in the game of life. See you at LSU if not before"

"Just a quick note say how much I was impressed by how your camp in Las Vegas was run. It was extremely organized. The skills were broken down and taught in a progression. I observed each player to receive someone on one time from your instructors and yourself. I do believe you knew every players name, I don't know how but you did! Your passion for this unique but vital part of football was clearly evident and it was infectious with the players. I am a high school and club rep coach and I recognize a good practice when I see one.
My son enjoyed the experience thoroughly; he learned a great deal and is motivated to improve. He was very excited to see his results that you posted so quickly and he sees his potential and how it can be realized with hard work and commitment. What more could a coach and a father ask for from a skills camp? 
We will be back next year for sure!"

This is truly a big deal! You can''t imagine the look on our son''s face, opening the envelopes. So, from the bottom of our hearts, "thanks"! 

We''ll see you in Vegas, in about a month.

Your programs have been VERY significant in this great schedule and involvement that we as a family take part in together everyday. Our 11 year old Daughter works right along side all the boys, but she wants a less important role on the team, she wants to be the QB. Thanks again for your help."

"Thanks for a great and rewarding weekend in Las Vegas!  This was by far the best organized and quality two day experience my son has had learning the proper techniques for deep and PAT/FG snaps.  As a Dad it is very gratifying seeing my son continue to grow in ability and confidence as a result of your teaching techniques.  The other wonderful experience is getting to meet other Dads (and Moms) and to follow the growth and development of their sons.  We are looking forward to your next camp(s) and are excited about the 2010 football season when my son can continue to fine tune his skills on the field with the Varsity team!"

PARENT, 2009, IL

"Just a quick note to say thanks for a great camp. With 5 kids at home, we tend to be big on organization & not wasting time or effort. I was over joyed at the way this camp was run. The kids were not idle for more than a few seconds if at all. For our first foray into the snapping world, this will not be our last. Our son only started snapping mid-way into the season & with wrestling going on now, has had minimal time to practice. he came away from Vegas with new desire & drive (& a healthy dose of humility) to work on his craft. also I wanted to give you a bit of info for his profile when you get to them. Thanks for getting the results up so soon ! "

Less than 3 1/2 years ago, my son and I met you at a park in Newport Beach for our first lesson.
Today, my wife and I stood by as my son signed a College Scholarship Letter of Intent to play Division 1 football, a long time dream of his.
Thank you for the many lessons, camp, competitions and words of encouragement. Packaged together, they took my son to the pinnacle of high school long snapping.
My son will still need you as he says he will be working harder the next four years to reach his ultimate goal of snapping in the NFL.
Thanks again for all the visible and behind the scene work you did for my son and the rest of the Class of 2009.
