i9 Sports Central San Diego, CA -

I grew up playing rec league basketball and I thought this program might have some of those features but NOPE. It was just not as advertised. The whole program seems so thrown together and unorganized. It's not a camp because the kids don't actually learn anything or develop skills. They just get run around for a while and then play against each other. It's not a league because there are no teams. So not sure what the disconnect here is but there's no way I can imagine anyone recommending this to someone. The coed program is too broad. The problem? Girls play with different sizes balls than boys. So what do we do about this? Everyone plays with a NBA size ball and the girls never have a chance. 9 year olds playing on 10 foot rims with size 7 balls is just dumb. There's no way they have the strength to use proper form so they just end up chucking the ball at the rim. The "coach" brought I'm his other team to be at up on the camp kids and then when the brought in team started losing, the coach decides to cheat until they win.

So now we have no skills being learned or refined, no team environment because there aren't enough players for more than 2 teams, no proper equipment, a coach that is more concerned for a different team and his Instagram videos than he is for the development of this i9 team/group, and who do we talk to to address these concerns? No one. No one responds to emails or calls. Good luck in the future i9. We won't be back.

Truth Be Known

i9 is definitely awesome in every way! The way they play their sports is amazing! The coaches really take pride in what they do and are very serious about their job! It shows in how they coach their kids! We love it! I have my son enrolled in his basketball and soccer with them and couldn’t be more happier! I highly recommend them.

We signed our son up for football and basketball... It is without a doubt the most disorganized league we have ever seen. So Disorganized to the detriment of the experience for the kids. Some teams didn't have a coach and the leagues though advertised to be a certain age group were in fact not. We registered for the 7-9 year olds and they made it 6-10.... How in the heck is a 6 year old supposed to play with a 10 year old.

Bill Sixsmith is a coward who won't respond to emails.

The coaches are amazing! They are both educational and fun and have unending patience! They really bring out the best in the kids. We have participated in three sessions and have enjoyed every moment. The price allows us to enjoy soccer without having to drop all other extracurricular activities and the 7 week sessions are just long enough to enjoy!

The coaches are great! I don't think it's a good idea to praise kids for every move they make, and I believe the coaches take the right balance of encouraging and providing constructive feedback. My son loves all the coaches he's had thus far. He's in flag football now and may be interested in trying one of the other sports at some point. Keep up the great work. Thanks!

My daughter has tried a variety of sports and the I9 coaches are terrific. They take time to teach basic skills for the sport and give the kids time to practice the skill before implementing it into a game. The games are structured to slowly introduce the kids to the different aspects. I think the coaching and fun environment I9 sports creates is an awesome place to learn a new sport or hone your skills in one you have already played!
