Bob's been coaching my 9 year old for the past several months and during that time the growth in…read morehis game has been significant. Many kids struggle with staying in the box because they don't trust their skills. Bob's commitment to fundamentals has given my son the confidence to lock in there and compete. The lessons are structured in a manner where the kids go through a progression of drills that focus on coordination, balance and contact, but it's not all work. Bob makes it fun too and that's the reason my son looks forward to his lessons every week. Most importantly as parent I can tell you there hasn't been one time where Bob's attention was diverted from my child during his lesson or he didn't coach with patience and understanding. There are plenty of baseball instructors out there. Many can make your kid a better player, but few will make your kid a better person. Bob is that coach and I recommend him wholeheartedly.

If you have ever read my Petco Park review, you might have an understanding about my relationship…read morewith the San Diego Padres. I grew up with this team and fell out in the early 90's after the strike. Many years later I work with a gentleman (Garett A.) who after a year of sharing space and hearing this and that about the Padres...would reignite a long lost passion for baseball, but more importantly my love for my swinging friars. The Padres used to conduct spring training in Yuma, but in 1994, made the switch to Peoria. This has proven to be a good thing for my family, as it just a hop, skip, and a jump away from the bastard step son of a city in the other desert. The family made plans in 2015, to visit Padre spring training. We stayed in Glendale which was a smaller hop, skip, and jump away from the Peoria Sports Complex (See that review). The trip was amazing. How was the trip amazing? Let me tell you..... When you are in a true major league park, it's easy to loose perspective. Ten's of thousands of fans in an enormous space, you can't really relate to the players who seem to be a country mile away from you. The SDPBC at PSC provides an up close environment to connect with these players before the start of the season. Often times they are within arms reach. Maybe there is a chain link fence BUT.....maybe there is not. The intimacy of the surroundings both on the practice fields and at the stadium can't be beat.
