"We appreciate the coach, he was able to stimulate the interest of our son to play basketball. The coach taught the kids different kind of skills in basketball and hence everybody had fun and enjoyed the classes. From what we could observe, friendship had also been built up in class as well. In short, the coach did an excellent job in teaching the class and made the experience unforgettable to most of the kids who joined the class if not all. "
