QUOTES & PICTURES
"I just wanted to write to say what an awesome job all of the coaches did during this past week's Rookie Camp. My sons, Patrick and Ryan, had an amazing time and have clearly learned a lot. The take-home DVD is wonderful, too, and included some very helpful tips. Thanks so much - this is a great program and I've already started recommending it to others..."
- Patty Dunn, Parent of Student
"Thanks for running a great camp. Monte came home exhausted and challenged (he has a lot of relearning to do), but encouraged and with some great memories. Personally, I enjoyed watching Wednesday night's game. I was impressed with your personal interaction with Monte during the course of the game on a couple of occasions. He and I both appreciated the early workout for catchers on Thursday AM that gave him some bonus time with the pitchers."

"Hi, My son attended Rookie camp in June 2007. I was very impressed with the set up and how the players interacted with the kids. Everyday he was excited to go and every night we heard about all of the fun he had learning how to really play and enjoy the sport. The Gopher staff and players...what can I say...you all are amazing! My sons eyes lit up everyday he was there. It was wonderful to have so many positive, strong male role models for these kids. You really had an impact on him. I just wanted to let you know that I truly appreciate all of your hard work and hours that you put into this camp. Nolan has dreams of someday playing for the Gophers and helping out at the camp. Have a great year and we will definitely be signing him up for next year. Thanks, again!

"My son, James (age 12) attended the recent hitting sessions during Christmas break. My son has attended other camps and usually dropped out after the first day due to lack of interest and stimulation. He simply has not had dreams of being a big league ball player. After the first night at the Gopher camp he came home thrilled. 'Dad, I changed my whole swing' was his comment. Next comment,'I crushed the ball'. Third comment, 'I really liked Luke, he helped me and he spent a lot of time working with me on my swing!' And finally, 'I can't wait to go back.' Anyway, I am thrilled that each night was a repeat of his first night reviews. The players and coaches, not just Luke, worked hard with the kids, were excellent coaches and made the event fun throughout."

I've worked with the University of Minnesota staff the last ten years and found them to be great teachers of baseball skills and fundamentals.

"The foundation of my baseball career was laid while a player at the University of Minnesota. John Anderson and his staff continue to do an outstanding job of teaching the game and developing players that has been part of Gopher baseball for years.
