Testimonials

Courtney Harris

We have been attending BAT camps for years and have even hired them for birthday parties! JR is one of my son's favorite people. He is a natural with kids, extremely patient and a great role model. Learning new skills in a variety of sports helps to keep the kids interested and engaged. Highly recommend this very professional group of guys! "
