PSV Union FC soccer club in Palo Alto has been around for several years. My son was on this soccer…read moreclub for two years. The coaches and staff are rude to the players families. In fact I saw the coaching staff make two parents cry because of the way they talk to people. The attitude problem with the PSV Union staff is presented by the club as being the European way. You do not need to treat people with disrespect to run a successful business. I strongly urge people to stay away from this club. There is no room in sports for this attitude. The club also discourages players from playing multiple sports.

Great player development youth soccer club. The coaches understand age appropriate developmental…read moredifferences. They have a clear vision and philosophy for training young athletes. One of the things I like best is that all the coaches train all the teams/groups. The groups/teams essentially stay together, and are not subject to movement between a "ladder" of teams of different levels. The club is focused on individual player development. This helps protect the kids from injury, and keeps their development and health as the highest priorities. Each player will learn all the positions, towards the goal of being the more complete player. And they keep it fun! Overall, awesome.

Joining this basketball program has been one of the best experiences for my son -- and for our…read moreentire family. RBA is absolutely phenomenal. Not only has they helped my son grow tremendously as a player, but he's also helped him develop greater confidence, discipline, and love for the game. As a former collegiate and semi-professional athlete, I know firsthand that coaching fit is everything -- especially when it comes to young athletes and their peers. Coach Turner (head coach) brings exactly the right balance of teaching, encouragement, and high expectations. You can see the results: my son and every player (young men and women) on this team are improving leaps and bounds. Beyond the court, this team feels like a family. The parents genuinely enjoy each other, we laugh and have fun at every game and event, and it's created a true sense of community. If you're looking for a program where your child will grow not just as a player, but as a person -- and where the whole family will feel welcomed -- I can't recommend the RBA family enough.

It can be tough finding the right travel baseball team for your young athlete. So we felt like we…read morelucked out big time when we found Coach David Jefferson and Swagger Athletics. Coach Dave has a wealth of baseball knowledge, the ability to achieve a deep rapport with the 9-12 year old crowd while commanding respect, and he genuinely cares about the development of his players. The boys respond by working with heart and determination. The results have been very gratifying. If your son gets a chance to play with Swagger you won't regret it. The Swagger camps and clinics are also a great way to get a taste of Swagger baseball.

My seven year old at the time struggled with his swing timing during the 2022 machine pitch season…read moreat M-ALL. We put him in Legends and specifically the Speedball program they invented in early 2023. By the time the 2023 machine pitch season began, his hitting (and fielding) abilities had been transformed. He has a beautiful swing now and he's obsessed with continuing to improve it. He also did two weeks of Legends in the summer of 2023. My older son also did Legends and their online program at the start of Covid was a wonderful invention by David Klein to keep the first batch of boys who joined sane and fit. The coaches are all so friendly and positive and you can tell they love working with young kids who love baseball. The program has grown a lot and expanded and I just hope that doesn't affect the quality and the culture.

I am so glad that Legends is in Orange County, wish it was around when my son was younger. Coach…read moreKelly was a huge help to my son as a PONY, Club, and High School player, taking him from below average, to making his High School team in a very competitive program. Steve is just a natural born teacher/coach, and knows every aspect of the game inside and out, is everyones favorite coach at all levels, works the positivity side of things like you wouldn't believe, and is one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. His success as a coach, and the success of his athletes, all comes from a place of real passion and the desire to see his players grow to their full potential. Coach Kelly was not only a great baseball coach for my son, but was an even better coach about life, and how to succeed. I'd almost have another kid just so he could play Legends and be coached by Steve Kelly.

I got to experience the Zen-Like Triathlon Teachings of Tim Sheeper yesterday! (for the seconded…read moretime in my life) Just like the first time, back in 1982 in San Francisco State's swimming pool, Tim encouraged proper swimming technique in a fashion that you could understand and gave support of your progress that left you feeling with a sense of accomplishment. In the 80's I competed with and against Tim Sheeper and let me tell you, in training he was one of the best partners any athlete could hope for! But, when it came to race day, he was fierce and tenacious and he left everything out on the race course. I remember one USTS SoCal race when i was able to yell an encouragement with a smile at a turn around point, he later asked me in a polite way, "How can you smile and be so up when you are busting your butt out there?" That was Tim's soft way of asking if I was trying my hardest giving my sponsors all of their money's worth! If you are looking for a coach that understands the sport of Triathlon and someone who is knowledgeable of the 3 sports individually, look no further, you will not be able to find anyone better than this true pioneer of the sport of Triathlon. Now back to training for me, I have been away from this sport for 24 years and I have to get re-educated! Thanks to my "future" Team Sheeper!
