“A very organized and logistically well run league by the higher-ups. Note it is a welcoming Christian league. They only invite dad coaches w good reputations to coach until 12U. Once at paid coaches the guys are great, just the communication, opportunities, & standards are not as consistent in the 3-4 teams/age group. Tryouts are a bad experience; paid coaches don’t have consistent timing, or forms of communication… or you just may never hear back. We would’ve returned back, but very put off by the tryout experience.”
“Great experience with this travel team and coaching staff. Communication is excellent, and the organization is supportive from top to bottom. Our son loves being part of the team. The boys get along great and really support each other. The coaches offer lots of extra opportunities to work on skills, and it's clear they genuinely care about each kid's progress and potential. Highly recommend for families looking for a positive, development-focused program.”
“Matt Smith is the worst coach I have ever met. He is crude and discouraging. He belittles his athletes and makes fun of them, cusses at them, threatens to cut them in the middle of games if an error is made. Run away. ”
“I was managing a HS field for a large tournament and had the displeasure of watching one of the Georgia Jackets teams play. The team was actually winning most of the game, but the coach was an a**hole the entire game to his players. This is not “tough coaching.” This is demoralizing and unprofessional behavior that has no place around young athletes. If you’re considering this program for your child, run away. There are far better organizations that actually develop players instead of tearing them down. Never seen anything like it and hope I never do again. I hope this is not how all the teams are coached. If so, avoid.”
