she left with so much confidence
June 28, 2019: Olivia went to camp nervous that she would be the worst player and she left with so much confidence. We were also impressed that her report card referenced her progress from last year and it really made her feel like you all cared. She cannot wait to come back next year.

Awesome coaches
June 29, 2018: My son adored his coaches and spent a lot of time thanking them and saying goodbye. When leaving he was talking excitedly about them and their backgrounds - there was some age and background diversity which he thought was great - 19 year old coaches and a 29 year old coach - solid coaches and good role models. He feels that they taught him a great deal and were very motivating to keep practicing.

July 6, 2015: The all star game with the counselors vs campers was great. Overall a wonderful experience and I would highly recommend it. My daughter came with 5 friends from North Andover and if Tom is running it again, I can guarantee probably 5 or 6 more campers from North Andover.
