The instructors did a great job of making the experience a fun camp every day including both softball fundamental instruction and games.
My son had a great time! And, I really appreciated the overview of what the campers learned when we attended the Friday final session. Finally, I very much appreciated the coach's perspective on teamwork and skill development.
Was my daughters favorite activity of the summer and she expressed that she loved how skills were taught to her verses expecting her to know already
The camp was very organized, my daughter loved it and i Think she learned some good stuff. Will come again next year!
My son loved the whole experience. The range of skills work was great. The ability to be fairly independent was huge. The skill level of the players he was grouped with was key. He felt seen.
This is my daughters 2nd time going to camp, and I could not be more pleased. She loves Coach Spider and all the coaches. She loves competing in the different 3 on 3 and 5 on 5 competions. This year, she was so excited to have made so many friends from other teams and places.
Great experience, well run. My kid had an awesome experience. Was impressed that they kept the kids busy and engaged all day long. He was excited to go back every day.
