"Parent review: Our experience with Jett was that of a coach and as a player. A good coach is a communicator and motivator, and is empathetic and holds players accountable. Jett was all of those with our son. He picked our player up when things were not going his way, put him in situations to contribute and to succeed, and celebrated him when it all came together. Our son looked up to and trusted Jett. It led him to perform well on and off the field, in areas where he doubted he could. And last but not least, Jett is a good human and is adored by kids and adults! Natascha, parent.
