SUCCESS STORIES
Kellie Vanhoy
"I am Ryan and Grey's mom. I wanted to thank each of you for the effort you put into the players at the Post to Post+ camp in Shelby, NC, this summer. Thank you for boosting not only my kidsâ skills, but more importantly, their confidence on and off the field. Weeks after camp, my kids still reference your coaching advice."
"Ryanâs coach even sent me a text a week or so after camp that said, âwhatever he is doing, keep it up.â I attribute that comment to what he learned from you."
Warren Koehler
"Steve Richards is the kind of coach parents hope their child gets to learn from. He challenges players to work hard, take responsibility, and grow both on and off the field. The environment is demanding but fun, with thoughtful coaching that pushes players outside their comfort zones and helps them discover new strengths. With support from experienced college and former players, Steve provides a high-quality, trustworthy development experience for families."
Ken Robinson
"Christian is a wonderful coach and leadership coach. He took on working with my son to help him develop his leadership and communication skills. The results were fantastic. In a few weeks, I saw my son become a better communicator with adults and a leader with his teammates. Working with Christian, you will receive inspiration and activities to help you improve continually. Christian is a "Coach" who will believe in your child."
