I love the fact that practices are before the games because it allows the kids to immediately implement what they were working on and achieve instant gratification from their hard work!
I like that the practices are before the games alleviating additional chaos to an already busy work and school week, I believe the jerseys are high quality, I love that the games are at the same school/location, that the refs check for cleats and shin guards (soccer), the fields are clearly marked, I feel the coaches are set up to be successful, and I am very appreciative that there is an i9 booth/table at every game day.
Hi! Only feedback I would give is more organization for the first game, with the rain issue it almost messed up the first actual game for the kids. If my friend didn’t reach out to someone, we would have missed that game.
The other feedback is I wouldn’t schedule pictures for 3-4 year olds at 8am after a holiday. Our entire team besides a kid or two struggled.
Other than that, I think it is a great program! Love our coaches .
They make coaches take classes before volunteering. They don't put up with heckling, negativity. The referees seem serious about their job. They recognize someone every game with a metal. Good morals, and organization! Thank you.
One of my favorite parts of game day is watching the coaches interact with their teams. These adults are showing up with their whole heart and head to teach these kids and share their love of the game.
