What people are saying

“There are so many wonderful things I could say about Coach J and his classes and parties. My boys always have the very best time playing sports, getting to be silly, but also learning important lessons on sportsmanship and kindness from Coach J. They beg to have “Coach J days” when off of school/camp, and truly light up knowing they get to spend the morning running around having a blast with friends. Coach J’s parties also are topnotch. Our son’s entire party ran seamlessly, and he made it such an easy and stress free experience for us as parents, knowing our kids and their friends were having fun, and all we really had to do was sit back and watch their smiling faces! We can’t wait to throw another Coach J party in a couple of weeks!

I could go on and on, but we are all big fans of Coach J! Thanks for always being a fun, safe, and comfortable place for our boys to get their energy out and have the best time ever!”​

“I have had the privilege of meeting Coach J initially through his day off programs. After that, both my boys participated in his after school flag football programs, and most recently, Sunday basketball. My boys (7 and 9) love Coach J and his staff and how they run flag football, day off programming, basketball, and birthday parties. Coach J is warm, fun, personable, honest, flexible, and the kind of guy you want your kids around. He is the real deal- he understands kids and helps instill values that we want as parents. Coach J cares and will ask questions to help understand a situation and do what he can to better it. He cares and wants to help make whatever experience as fulfilling as possible while having fun. I can’t say enough about Coach J – just a positive presence and someone you want in your kid’s life. “ 

“Coach J has been an incredibly important part of my son’s life for the past four years. While he works with him in both baseball and basketball year round, his impact goes far beyond sports – he has truly been a mentor.
 
When I first spoke to Coach J about my son’s struggles with motor planning, he didn’t brush it off or offer a one-size-fits-all approach. He took the time to listen, research, and learn how to best support him – something I have rarely seen anyone do. Because of that commitment, my son gained the skills and confidence he needed to keep up with his peers. Without Coach J, he would be far below their level today. Instead, he loves playing, believes in himself, and genuinely looks forward to every session.
 
What stands out most is Coach J’s calm, thoughtful coaching style. He meets kids where they are, speaks to them at their level, and takes the time to understand what motivates each child individually. He has become a part of our weekly lives, and I am confident that will continue for years to come. We are beyond grateful for the role he has played in our son’s growth – both as an athlete and as a person.”

“There’s truly nothing like Coach J! Both of my boys absolutely love his programs, and I’ve never seen them happier. As a parent, I fully trust Danny—not only to keep my kids safe, but to teach them how to play fair and be great teammates. He has the patience of a saint and is an incredible role model. I couldn’t recommend him or his programs more. Thank you for everything, Danny!”
