I purchased a Groupon so my son could try the Thursday evening trading sessions. My son is 12, took an interest in BB about a year ago, has been playing on a developmental team at the YMCA. I truly believe my son learned more after his 1st Thursday evening session than he did all the months he «practiced» at the Y! The drills and games the kids play are very instructional. At 1st I was concerned because I saw many kids at the session but Coach & his assistants really keep an eye on the kids and give them individual instruction/feedback when necessary. Hard 2 Guard is a great program!
