My two cents worth: I would encourage all to attend if possible. We have attended virtually all of the MIHS camps offered in Soldotna since mites, and have found them worthwhile, and fun, and "game day" at the conclusion is a blast. I think it is also important for the kids to get exposure to varied drills and coaching and instruction styles. No matter what skill level a player is at, my own observation is that most of them get motivated in these camps.

Some people think that the camps are for the elite player only...that is not the case. Brad has done an excellent job of accomodating players at different skill levels and giving them meaningful experience.

Let's support MIHS. You are not going to find a better camp for the price, and right in our own back yard.
