Camp Reviews

Overall Average Rating 5.00 / 5 Stars
    • 5/5.

    July 15, 2022: Specific guidance from my son's coach and the friendships he made in the short time he was there. My son said the said was "awesome" and he could tell how much they loved the sport. He also made some great friends from other states and simply had a blast. When I picked him up, the "closing ceremony" with the awards and speeches was a great way for parents to see the interaction among peers and coaches. My son left camp extremely happy and very sore! I loved seeing him this way:)
