“Used this game lastnight in ages 7-10 group, they absolutely loved it, I didn’t use the story version, just keep them connected with the grips, and go. 100% adding it to the rolodex of “games” the older kids perfer I just say positional training.”

“I’ve been using your games and making up some of my own and the kids are so much more engaged. We always had a solid program but I feel like this style of training for kids so so much more effective. I’ve had a few kids tell me they learned more than we ever did drilling. Thank you for inspiring this for me.”
