Hi Gabe, Simon, Alex, Andrew, Jake, John, Mike and the entire staff!
Just got home and had to write you all about what an amazing week Ahren, Logan, Chase, and Tim had. Again this year I am truly staggered by the unbelievable rapport you build with the kids and the level of instructional expertise you’ve offered them. As a teacher and mom to 3 boys, I have truly never seen anything like this. You inspired Logan so dramatically last year that his select NT involvement this year (abandoning his diehard Leaside allegiance) is a direct result of who you are as people.
Logan has again announced his intent to become “just like you guys” – not just as a ball-player, but as a coach and all-round “grown up”. Now you’ve inspired Ahren in the same way. Ahren announced in the van just now that he will try-out for A or Select baseball next season and will find out about becoming a CIT with you next summer.
Honestly, kudos to you all – you have found the magic. If only we teachers could take a lesson from all of you, I can only imagine what would be possible in the classroom.
Truly, thank you. Have an incredible summer!

My son Sam was in your session the week of August 9 to 13. I wanted to give you a quick note to say that Sam had an absolutely fantastic week. Every night he came home with a new skill and was anxious to demonstrate what he had learned. The attention he received and the great feedback he received from you and the other coaches was tremendous for building his confidence. As you noticed, Sam has a lot of fun playing and wants to be the best player he can be. I found your Skills Evaluation form very specific and very focused, which means you were paying attention to what he does well and where he needs to improve. We read it to him on the car ride up to the cottage on Friday and he identified with all the feedback for improvement. He had a big smile when you called him ‘All Star of the Week’.
Thanks again for making this a special summer for Sam. See you next year.

Our son Justin attended the NT Baseball camp in one of the hottest
weeks all summer! Even with the scorching temperatures he was excited
to go to camp everyday with no complaints. He LOVED it. Justin tells
us he learned more at 1 week of camp than he did all season with his
baseball team. He learned so much that he was "star of the game" the
week of baseball camp!! Thanks to all the guys - it was a fantastic
week and we look forward to doing a couple of weeks next year.

As we are back in Denver now, just wanted to say a big thank-you for a terrific week of baseball for Evan. He had a really great time and enjoyed learning more details about the sport. Thanks so much and hope you guys have a great year - hope to be back for some more baseball next summer! If you ever want to start up in Denver - let me know! Thanks again - you guys were great!

I would like to thank all of you for a wonderful baseball experience
for Zachary and Taylor MacDonald. They had a great time and totally
looked forward to going each and every day. Zachary had an opportunity
to go to Muskoka for the week and emphatically said no "I want to go to
NT baseball". I was trying to figure out what made it so great for them
and I can only attribute it to the amazing coaching and counsellors.
They spent every day at the diamond sometimes in very hot weather and
they always came home having had a great day. Congratulations on a hugely
successful summer and you better get ready for more kids next summer
because lots of people are talking about your camp. The word is
spreading
already.

Hi Guys – I have to tell you just how much Harrison loved the camp. You guys did a great job, were fantastic with the kids and the “report cards” you handed out were really helpful. Harrison, as you know, is fairly new to baseball but has really developed a taste for the game and you guys just made it all the better for him. He has read the report card over and over. Thanks again for a great two weeks.
- Drew B., Parent
Just a note to say WOW! Connor had a blast this week at baseball camp! You guys put on a great camp and really know how to work with all the kids, at every age and every level. Connor has such a love for the game and this week was perfect for him! He'll be back next year for sure! For Connor, this week was truly unforgettable... "Mom, Dice K is a coach" (you know he's a huge Red Sox fan) to the secret hand shake with Gabe and a big thanks to Simon for the shades! Thanks guys... you’re the best! I always like to tell people when they've done a great job... especially when it comes to my kids!

My game really improved in one week at camp. It was a perfect
balance of skills training and fun activities.
- Daniel L., Camper
To all the staff at NT Baseball Camp... Thanks a lot for the very successful week.
Eyal had a great time and speaks very positively about the experience. I can see he had lots of fun, learned a lot and got very valuable baseball instruction. He can't wait to be back in August. Your camp is excellent, product of an excellent staff team. Thank you and keep up the good work!
- Daniel W., Parent
Congratulations on another great summer program this year. I had numerous players of mine (including my own son) attend NT baseball camp with unanimous appreciation for your programming and talent/enthusiasm. I only wish I could attend a couple weeks of camp.
Keep up the excellent work and thank you for building on the enthusiasm and skill of baseball in Toronto.
- Paul G., Parent
Just wanted to let you know that Neil had a great time at the camp.
He's been going to the baseball camp for several years but tells
me there are many more advantages to your camp. He liked the counsellors,
the instruction, the opportunity for more playing time, and
also the small size. He's looking forward to joining you
again next year!

My son (Jack) had a great experience. He came away with
some valuable pointers on how to improve his game -
from better batting movement to proper rotation when throwing.
He loves baseball and I am a soccer Dad so I am no help
whatsoever....but we spent a few hours tossing a ball
around on the weekend and he was teaching me!
You created a very good environment and a healthy balance
between fun and learning.
- John B., Parent
I want to thank you again for a great week of baseball camp - Ely had a fabulous experience. The organization of the camp was superb, from the pre-camp letter to the post-camp letter. We were impressed by your ability to create a fun, learning environment for all kids, regardless of age/skill level.
Ely is looking forward to another week of baseball camp in a couple of weeks (told us that he doesn't like his current camp as much as NT Baseball Camp).

My children are currently in Week 5 of your Baseball Camp. I would like to take this opportunity to commend your staff and camp for a great job in the past few days. The coaches are consistently friendly, helpful and approachable. The campers are truly enjoying their time with them.
I was extremely grateful and impressed by the coaches' commitment to the children today. There were some peanut shells left on the grass by the diamond, perhaps during a baseball game the night before. The coaches were seen picking up all of these shells in the morning, and moving the equipment to the further diamond. This demonstrated a genuine concern for the children who do have a severe peanut allergy, my son being one of them. This is one of the many reasons that children look forward to returning every year.
Keep up the great work. My kids look forward to the last few days. Thanks again.
- Donna C., Parent
Our son, Chili, attended your camp last week. From both his reports and my own observation, I have been really impressed. Our children have attended sports-focused summer day camps before, and I feel that yours is being run very well by comparison. Chili learned A LOT at the camp that he did not understand before. As well, the atmosphere was a lot of fun for him. The end-of-week report cards were very well done, including the extra comments that were written in. The instruction booklet handout was impressive. And most important, your counselors maintain their focus on THE KIDS. In many camps, the counselors become distracted with each other, and sometimes ignore the kids. Yours appear to really enjoy being with the kids and teaching them. That makes a very positive difference in the children’s enjoyment. Thank you! I hope that your camp continues to be successful!
- Gayle W., Parent
From our perspective - Jonathan has been to a few sports camps this summer and this week at baseball camp was by the far the most motivational, fun and easy-going, while at the same time he has developed and learned the most. You and your team obviously have a winning formula! Thanks again.
- Beverley G., Parent
Well, you guys did it again. Congratulations on another wonderful year of baseball camp. T. Mac and Z. Mac (I believe these are the new nicknames and we love them) both had a great time and learned a lot to improve their baseball skills. It's great how you are able to focus in on the individual strengths and weaknesses of all of the campers. We will see you next summer. Thanks again!
- Linda S., Parent
Baseball camp was awesome. The instructors are such
good players and coaches. I learned a lot about my
hitting and fielding and I like the Scouting Report
that I was given at the end.
- Iain F., Camper
It was great fun! Any kid who wants to learn how to
play baseball should come to NT Baseball Camp. The
coaches make it fun to learn the basics and advanced
skills. I will definitely come back next year. I wish
could go for several weeks. It was awesome!
