Omni really needs to start giving more playtime to their players. It's super frustrating to travel…read moreso far for tournaments and games just to sit on the bench the whole time. If coaches aren't going to actually play everyone, then the teams should be smaller--around 9 or 10 players instead of 12 or 13. Having so many players means some kids barely touch the court, no matter how hard they practice or how committed they are. On top of that, some of the coaches are just plain mean. They don't encourage their players or try to build confidence--they tear them down instead. There's a huge difference between being strict and being rude, and unfortunately, a lot of the coaching here crosses that line. It really feels like certain players are favored no matter what, and others get ignored or even bullied. Parents pay a lot of money and spend hours traveling for practices and tournaments, so it's really disappointing when players don't get treated fairly. Omni has potential to be a great club, but they seriously need to rethink their coaching approach, how they divide playtime, and how they treat their athletes overall. Everyone deserves a fair chance to grow, play, and actually enjoy the sport.

Update: we were not issued an update but a credit to use with Omni at a later date and time. My…read moredaughter had friends playing for the club and still wanted to give it a chance, so this worked for us. My daughter went on to play with Omni for a little over 2 years. She's made great relationships with teammates that she still has today. Her coach Jess was really supportive of her skill building and college aspirations. My daughter has since graduated and moved out of state for college. She considered playing in college and was able to reach out to coach Jess during a break at home, and Jess extended an open invitation for her to get back into practice. My daughter ultimately decided not to play at the college level, but the relationships built and warm reception are priceless as she navigates life. My younger daughter would like to follow her sisters footsteps and when we get there, Omni would be our choice for club.

I am not one to leave a review, but the Hard90 coaches and the Hard90 Program have been a game…read morechanger for my 2 boys! I strongly recommend Hard90 for any families looking for a positive program that will develop your player. After back to back Little League seasons with little to no development, we knew we had to try something new. Our 2 boys worked with a few hitting coaches at local facilities, but other than additional reps, it wasn't anything special. For over a year, we heard great things about Hard90 & finally decided to give it a try and signed both of our boys up for a 3 month membership. From the start, it was immediately clear that their professional coaches and developmental approach was above the rest. Within weeks we saw growth and their confidence soared...so much so, that they both asked to try out for the their team! This year, the boys both set a goal to take full advantage of all that Hard 90 offers: Team practices, 1:1 coaching, Power Classes, etc. After 1 year with Hard90, it is clear that it has been transformative to their overall happiness, self esteem, love for the game, mechanics, and overall development. All of the Hard90 coaches are hands down- exceptional. Looking back, my only regret is we waited so long! Thank you Hard90! We are forever grateful and so happy that our boys are part of the Hard90 Family!

The worst baseball academy in Northern California…read more OUTDOOR PRACTICES: there are over 40 kids and only 3 inexperience coaches. No professional structure that could lead and benefit athletes. INDOOR PRACTICES: Only one coach for a roster of 14-15 kids. No clear guidance or structure. COACHES: are very young who do not have children of their own which is directly proportion to lack of their knowledge in child/youth psychology and behaviors. Poor leadership and unfairness during games resulted in destroying athletes' motivations and drive in order to succeed on their goals. The lack of education, knowledge, leadership and kids/youth psychology not only makes this academy one of the worst academies in the region but very harmful to youths both psychologically and emotionally. There are NO ADDED VALUES in enrolling kids & youths in HARD 90 BASEBALL ACADEMY.

Concern About Staff Harassment…read more I attended a community event recently and had an uncomfortable experience with one of your staff photographers. Despite clearly blocking him and expressing that I did not want my photo taken, he continued taking pictures of me and singling me out to take my picture and record me. When I reported this to venue staff, the response was essentially that he was "just doing his job," which made me feel that my boundaries and safety were not being taken seriously. The staff did not address his behavior and requested a private meeting with me to question me. I'm sharing this so the venue is aware that attendees' comfort and consent must come first. Staff should be trained and reminded to respect boundaries and ensure everyone feels safe. I hope the venue will address this behavior and prevent similar incidents in the future.

Plenty of shade trees, open space, poop bags and water fountains ( for humans & K-9's)* *water fountains for humans & K-9's. Poop bags for dogs only. Both the big dog (over 30lbs) and small dog areas have ample room to run and play. We now have 3 very nice dog parks ( Folsom / Cameron Park ) within a 10 mile radius of our home. What a great place for "Man's best friend" to run, play and meet new friends.

My daughter Nicole sat the bench most of her freshman & sophomore years as a D1 basketball player…read more Danielle Viglione came highly recommended by a co-worker. Danielle worked with her privately an hour twice a week for 6 weeks and the results were a complete 360. Danielle's skill, basketball IQ and teaching ability catapulted Nicole from averaging 1.2 PPG to 8.2 PPG (9.6 in conference) and from 6.4 minutes per game to 20 mpg. She started 6 games this year and is usually the first player off the bench. One game she had 21 pts, 7-of-7 field goals and 6 of 8 free throws. She is now a true impact player at the D1 level. I can't say enough about this program, except that it was well worth the investment. Nicole definitely plans to train again this summer with Danielle.

Coach Paul has instilled a sense of self confidence and drive to work harder in our daughter. Coach Paul helped her during a knee injur and surgery. He fostered an environment of trust where she was able to come back slowly to now playing at 100%. I highly recommend Coach Paul, he knows how to make the game fun but is able to push the kids to grow and become more skilled. Coach Paul has a high basketball IQ and quickly sees where players need improvement. An awesome experience!!

Very, very unprofessional. Started working with Evan and TJ to get my little brother involved in…read morethe team. TJ became the main coach and then things went down hill. Last minute practice cancellations, tournament cancellations, lack of communication. We had practice and tournaments scheduled for the second half of the season and then an entire month of practice was cancelled right after we paid $350. We decided a week later we would be leaving the team because of the unstable future of the team. TJ said he would pay me back the $350 but only when he had the money (how could you spend money on tournaments and coaching if they literally haven't even happened?). This money was supposed to be for the second half of the season. I have been reaching out for 9 months trying to get my money back that he has promised he would send me, but he has only sent $225 of my $350. He has finally blocked my number and Evan refuses to respond to me. UPDATE: Both TJ and Evan have blocked by phone number. I don't wish any ill intention, I'd just like the remaining $125 back. Happy to remove this review if my money is paid back, no questions asked.

TJ is an incredible coach that takes the time to not only help my son succeed on the court but off it as well with grades. Because of his mentorship, my son played high school varsity basketball as a sophomore and has improved every year. He also has taken school seriously with a 4.0 GPA and a lot of that has to do with Coach TJs "grades to play" rule. Also a big shout out to Coach Evan who has been my son's coach for tournament play the last 2 seasons and does a great job. After reading the 1 review on here I was compelled to add my review to contradict what that person is saying. On a final note, Clutch Elite is one of the more affordable programs out there for AAU and the two main coaches (TJ and Evan) aren't doing this simply to make money and milk the players familes so they can live lavish lifestyles. Both of them have other full time jobs besides coaching. They care about the kids and it shows with their coaching and mentorship.
