TESTIMONIALS

“Thank you for all that you have done for Alex in this SWAT season. We truly appreciate your time, leadership and talents. Alex truly loves team sports and it means a great deal to me to have coaches prioritize character, leadership and sportsmanship in the sport. Thank you for showing Alex that you can exemplify godly character within the sports that you love to participate in.”

“I want you to know Nick is really enjoying this opportunity to play ball and the coaches. It means a lot to us to have positive coaching!”
-Parent of S.W.A.T. player

“Thank you for all the “KC” coordination…and for taking the leap with this program overall. We are growing as a (baseball) family via these experiences + opportunities. The experience last weekend was beyond any other. Sincerely. I heard how you talked to the kids. And even more powerful, how you acted + reacted…when they faced adversity. Very cool + inspiring. Also, Mack knows he messed up on the last out. As you said, it’s most important that he (the team) take away new awareness from a punch in the mouth. Next time he knows to put his head down and “get home…safe.”I’ve said it before – if all this was simply another opportunity to “win” (with no focus on growing as young men…with integrity + Faith), we wouldn’t make the commitment. Thank you for making the commitment pay dividends already.”

“Wanted to thank you and the entire SWAT organization for all you have done and will be doing as we move forward. My experience to date has been everything we expected, hoped for, and more.
Lastly, I want to thank the entire SWAT coaching staff. I love that my son is being coached by a great staff of experienced and knowledgeable coaches. Bjorn enjoys the practices and is learning and improving. I am also pleased that the staff works together. Please pass on thanks to these guys, and the rest of your staff.”

“Nolan’s experience with the SWAT program has been a unique, once in a lifetime opportunity and positive experience that will pay valuable dividends for him in his baseball career definitely, but also in his life. The baseball/life lessons he was taught and learned have and will continue to make a difference in his future; he is applying them and carrying them forward. Thank you”

“Thanks for putting together the banquet; Ethan said it was a lot of fun. Unfortunately, I was out of town that weekend so I wasn’t able to connect with you in person to let you know how much we appreciate everything you and your staff did with the boys! This was Ethan’s first year with SWAT and he really enjoyed playing on the 15 year old team. It really helped him continue to develop his skills and ultimately prepare him for the high school season. He was really excited about being selected to play on the JV Team this year at Osseo High School. His off season preparation had a big part in this selection! In addition to the baseball training, it was really a great group of coaches and families to be around! I really like your focus on developing young men in addition to playing baseball and it clearly creates the right attitudes and attracts the right type of players to the program. Thanks again for a great season!!”

-Parent of S.W.A.T. player

“Thank you for all the time and energy you invest in working with these boys. It’s really been fun to see Matt’s confidence soar. He went into the season fully prepared, he is a leader on his JV team, and it’s translating into success! But most importantly, I appreciate the influence you have on developing the character of these boys. They are at such an influential point in their lives, and Matt really enjoyed the camaraderie of his teammates and having great role models as coaches. Thank you for working with Matt to make him a better baseball player and a stronger person.”

Thank you for allowing us to be part of such an amazing organization! We are truly grateful to have been able to participate. We appreciate everything that you, the coaches, and the organization have done. The baseball lessons, but more importantly, the life lessons have been priceless! We’ve had a ton of fun and met some very amazing families that have now become great friends. I cannot thank you enough! We look forward to tryouts this summer! Thank you again for all your hard work and dedication to these young men!”

You have also helped him grow and become a better young man. The values you instill make a difference in these boys. Chris and I have seen the change in Luke and we owe that to you.
