About Us

I have been a sport parent for over 30 years. Both of my sons have played Football, Basketball and Hockey.  I have had plenty of stinky sport gear in the back of my car.  

My youngest son started playing hockey at the age of 3. He went on to play through high school and then to Juniors and earned a scholarship to play college hockey. 

I currently have grandsons playing football, hockey and baseball.  My granddaughter is a softball player.

About 10 years ago, while playing in hockey, my son was diagnosed with MRSA (Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus). He had cut his elbows during a game and they had become infected from his elbow pads. During the 3 weeks of receiving different treatments, involving multiple antibiotics, he was referred to an orthopedic surgeon. He was told that if the MRSA had spread from the soft tissue to the bone, he would have to have both arms amputated above the elbow. He was very lucky that the antibiotics worked and he recovered. He went on to play in the ACHA Tournament in Conneticut. While attending that tournament, I noticed this large silver machine in the hockey shop at the rink. I ask about it and was told it was a Sani Sport Machine that sanitized hockey gear. I came home and went online and checked out the company. I decided it was a great opportunity to help other athletes. I recently purchased the machine and started Sani Sport Solutions. I currently have a grandson who is playing hockey in Chippewa Falls. I had the opportunity to sanitize his gear and the best part is the fresh smell of his gear. Not only does Sani Sport sanitize the gear, it leaves it smelling fresh. The bad smell is the result of bacteria that infest the sweaty equipment.
