My sons experience has been amazing so far. He's learned so much in so little time. The coaches are attentive, honest, and willing to teach the kids based on their needs and what they see lacking. It is more than we could've asked for. The community involvement is also a great learning tool. It's easy to see that staying active and involved is important to the club. Will definitely be sticking with SWA!
