 | "Developing kids at the grassroots level is essential for the success of baseball. This program has been meticulously designed by coaches who've been involved in the sport for years. Some of these coaches have led teams to the US, contributing back by helping young players grow. Kids not only develop their baseball skills but also gain life skills and build lasting friendships." | "Excellent value. Very professionally organised and their communication was outstanding. The coaches who were part of the program conducted themselves as pros,the encouragement advice and the drills they ran the kids through were excellent. Highly recommend to all parents with children who want their kids to improve skills and learn teamwork." | "My son thoroughly enjoyed the program and has already asked if he can attend again next year. He found the coaches friendly, knowledgeable and encouraging. He can’t wait for the summer season to start so he can put into practice everything he has learnt over the past eight weeks. Thanks to the coaches, committee and organisers for providing a great program. " |
