I loved that the i9 coaches helped run practices. With such young kids the more help the better. Practices and games were always very organized and time efficient. My expectations of a 4/5 year old basketball team were far exceeded. This was a great way to introduce the sport and build confidence.
What a wonderful first soccer experience for our five-year-old! Having his friend's dad as coach made it extra special, and the team was fantastic. He thrived with the 'practice-then-game' format, loving the chance to get on the field. The sessions were fun, structured, and perfect for his age. We highly recommend checking i9 Sports out!
We like that the values of the program, that the focus is on learning skills and teamwork and good sportsmanship and parents are encouraged to not focus on competitiveness. It gives the kids a chance to learn these skills in a low pressure environment.
We have been very impressed with our daughter’s volleyball coach who shows patience and enthusiasm and is such a great role model. The entire group of 8th grade girls is so sweet and supportive of each other which makes this first volleyball experience a really positive thing!
I9 has been so fantastic this season! My daughter is freshly into volleyball right now and her coaches are amazing. They actually take the time to teach the kiddos. They even work with them one on one this has been the best season yet and i'm so thankful for I9!
We have done two season of tball with my 3.5 year old, and we just love it. The coaches are always so sweet, are following well thoughtout and age appropriate "practice" plans, and we love the value of the week. I especially love getting a heads up of that value through email, so we can discuss it at home the week leading up to the game! Thank you, i9!
I recommend i9 as a great sports learning program specially for kids that are starting to get in to sports. I let them know it is a great place to have fun while playing and while learning skills and foundations of the sport.
Improvements can be done in the following area, when playing double header games give the kids a loner break (20-30 minutes break ideally) they need time to recover specially when the temperature is above 80 degrees.
It will be nice if play schedules are release sooner than a week a week before first game. This will allow parents to arrange schedules for other activities, school, etc
