The Broad Family
Mom of a 7 year old coach pitch baseball player. My son told me he was feeling nervous about the upcoming season. We found Driven Academy online and booked a few different privates for a day. 30 minutes of batting, fielding, and catching with Micah gave my son the confidence back that he normally has. Micah was awesome to work with, was encouraging, and was very knowledgeable of the game. Would recommend over and over again. Thanks for the great experience!
