So far my family has had a positive experience with the i9 flag football program. As a working mom, I can appreciate holding practice and games on the same day.
We usually have a great experience with I-9. This time around the coaches don't seem as into it as we've seen in the past. Also, our son is in kindergarten and he's playing teams that have 3rd graders on the team. 2 Saturdays ago he played a 3rd grade boy and it was not a good match up at all. I don't believe 8 and 9 year olds should be allowed to play with kindergarteners.
Staff is very friendly and organized. I9 runs like a well oiled machine from start to finish!
Coaches are great with my son and I love the 1x week practice & game. This allows us flexibility and helps ease the burden of getting to practice/games during the crazy work week.
I love how engaging everyone is, the kids come to learn and play. Also love the simple process of practicing beforehand then a game. Easy for both kids and families to participate in.
It’s a great way to introduce a sport to kids. Organized and uniforms are of good quality. I do think that there needs to be some kind of screening for higher level teams (some that have been playing together and a bit advanced)
Love the focus on building skills and values, and the resources presented to volunteer coach helps a ton with preparation. The sessions are the right length, and the mix of practice time and games keeps my child motivated to come back to soccer as a 4 year old beginner.
