What I appreciate most about i9 Sports is that the program creates a positive, encouraging environment where kids can learn, grow and enjoy being part of a team. As a parent, I love that the focus goes beyond winning and also emphasizes sportsmanship, confidence, teamwork and having fun.
Ease of practice and play. Low pressure environment. The coaches are improving the student skills. My daughter likes the use of the term scrimmages vs. games. She also likes that sportsmanship awards are given out after play.
I like the convenience and the opportunity for youngsters of different ages to practice learning a sport recreationally or at their skill level. The coach I have is really great with the kids. I only wish there were more staff coaches as some of the parent coaches end up having to deal with their children hanging off their legs or asking them for help.
I like that the coaches are parents. They give it their all because they care. It’s nice they also are given instructions on what to practice each day.
We love i9 sports! Our son has participated in basketball and soccer for several seasons. It has been a great experience for him- building teamwork skills- the coaches have all been top-notch and have taken a special interest in building needed skills in individual players.
The focus on teaching young athletes the importance of sportsmanship and how to demonstrate it. While children are young they should learn the fundamentals and skills for each sport. I like that we have trained coaches for volleyball. The coaches are also teaching the girls how to incorporate sportsmanship into Team play and teach the girls how to be teammates and encouraging a positive playing environment.
What I like most about the i9 Sports program is the support from the staff and how well organized everything is.
I also appreciate that the season is only five Saturdays. It gives players the opportunity to try a sport and see if they truly enjoy it before committing to a longer season.
Another thing I really like is that practice and games are on the same day. It makes scheduling much easier for families and eliminates the need for additional weekday commitments.
