Dips started Warsop Cricket Coaching following a season of playing and coaching cricket in Australia in 2006. Being a British Indian coach, he was asked by Australian children about the conditions in England and India. Over the Australian Christmas holidays he ran a coaching clinic with the idea of teaching and coaching these young players about the conditions around the world. Fast forwards to 2012, during a holiday he discussed the concept with his fiancée who told him to Just Do It!
2012 Warsop Camp was born and has grown to be Essex largest summer cricket camp. Dips has 2 daughters who are now old enough to join camp this year!
