After the first day, my 8-year-old son was so excited he talked about the camp all the way home. My teenage boy acted like a teenager and said "its cool." The best part about the Brusa volleyball program is how the coaches and staff members interact with all the kids at all ages. The ownership did a phenomenal job putting together a great coaching staff. My 8 year old son is now part of the Future Star Program and the excitement has continued to grow everyday. Thank you BRUSA!

Our family had a very disappointing experience with BRUSA Volleyball. My daughter joined the club…read moreexcited about developing as a player and pursuing the opportunity to compete for a USA Volleyball Nationals bid, which was an important factor in our decision to join. Unfortunately, after the season began & commitments were signed, the coaches ultimately decided not pursue USA Nationals despite our understanding that it was a possibility communicated to families if the team earned a bid. Throughout the season, we found that asking respectful questions about athlete development, practice structure, and team plans was often met with avoidance & defensiveness rather than open communication. As parents, we believe questions should be welcomed and addressed professionally. As the season progressed, we experienced increasing communication difficulties, inconsistent expectations, and what we felt was a lack of transparency regarding decisions affecting our daughter. When we attempted to work through concerns with club leadership, we did not feel they were meaningfully resolved. Ultimately, our daughter was removed from the team with only two tournaments remaining, which was devastating to our athlete & has affected her desire to continue the sport. Every family's experience may be different, and many athletes may have positive experiences here. However, we encourage prospective families to ask detailed questions before committing, including: - How decisions regarding USA Volleyball Nationals are made and communicated. - How parent concerns are handled. - What the process is for resolving disagreements with coaches. - How athlete development opportunities are managed when concerns arise. Our hope in sharing this review is not to discourage athletes from pursuing volleyball, but to encourage transparency and communication so other families can make informed decisions. We sincerely wish all of the athletes the best and hope every player has a positive and supportive club experience.

It's club volleyball and their know-how of the sport is pretty amazing and they break it down to you. The owner, Dennis cares and is so helpful along with coach Kym. (Able to communicate and break it down for the player imo) I personally feel like they genuinely care and the work your child puts in is what you get out of it, and they're available to always help and give coaching. I personally think they're awesome.

Then to top it of the President calls the cops and CPS and tells Cops and CPS false information. The cops and CPS Said that the accusation were unfounded. This is not leadership. Then even better the VP and the head player agent have their kids playing PONY. What's that about?? Then there was parent who can't afford the fees but was willing to volunteer hours to pay for the fee but once again they keep turning away kids. It's that right? But all board members get their fees for free and get free all star uniforms... It's say now how adults can take away from the kids and give to there our kids. Stay away until leadership changes. This now dictatorship now

I look in the mirror and I'd be ashamed of myself if I was this league knowing that there's kids in other states that only wish they had half as good as weather is we have yet you guys close the fields because there's one raindrop or one tiny little puddle somewhere this is ridiculous..

The league takes player safety seriously and since this is flag football they are very strict regarding contact. That said, they're still kids playing hard and injuries can occur though I've never seen anything serious. The kids have fun and still compete hard. The league is competitive and divides the kids according to grade level (1st/2nd, 3rd/4th, and so on). I also really appreciate that only division champs EARN trophies. The little kids all get trophies but once you hit the sophomore division, you have to win to earn a trophy. I really appreciate that as a parent and coach. It teaches the kids some real world lessons that victory must be fought for and won. Not everyone can win! We've already signed up for fall 2019 and we can't wait to get back on the field. Thanks FNL for the fun and the memories!

I live here. I've been attending games here for almost 20 years. Nothing has changed! It's dusty…read morefrom the makeshift dirty unpaved parking lot. It's a sad day when you have to make plans to wash your car around the games. I've always had to think....Hmmmm, will I have to park at Pony Fields, after I wash my car???? If you do, don't bother cleaning it because it will come out dirty. There's probably about 100 spaces in the fenced in paved area with ONLY 3-4 handicap spots. Get here early if you don't want to drive your fancy car onto the dirt and pot-holed rocky filled, dirt lot. You can also take the chance of parking on the street but trying to unload Littles and baseball gear and crossing the busy street, WILL add to your stress and challenge. Pony fields sometimes charge a fee to enter. I don't know why. It's not a park worth coming into. What can I say? It's dirty, dusty and no shelter from wind or dust storms that seem to pick up every single night we are here. Trees are few and far between so bring your EZ Ups and be prepared to batten them down. It's windy here and will catch you off guard. I think the owners of this field need to invest some serious money and rebuild this park. The outhouses scattered about in the field are always so STINKY! When the wind picks up, trust me, you will need nose protection. It is unbearable. It probably isn't healthy to breathe this mess. Poor kids running around this field come home and need to be dunked in a tub. It's that dirty. True. It's a baseball field, but for those of us NOT playing baseball, spectators.... we shouldn't have to feel we went through a dust storm, at every visit. Do not park along the backside of the fields or you will get hit. So that takes away about 10-15 paved spots. On the plus side, the snack bar is reasonable. There are a few wooden picnic tables. Also, hilly patches of grass to sit on. Don't plan to lay a blanket down anywhere for the kids. It's pretty dirty. Dogs and pets are not allowed! Starbucks, McDonalds, Chic-Filet, Jack in the Box, Walmart, Target, and many others, are within 3-5 miles. In the 23 years I've lived in Murrieta, I will say this is the worst baseball park I have taken the kids to. It really needs to be improved. No stars would be my best rating. I am forced to give it 1. Really not deserving of even 1.
