My son played recreational baseball for several years. He has incrementally improved throughout the years, but since working with Coach Chad and the JIBC Pirates his confidence has skyrocketed, and his knowledge of the game has significantly increased. The team’s hustle and have fun mentality is great for kids their age. - JIBC Parent
My son has played both Fall and Spring ball on the 10U travel ball team and we have had a wonderful experience! Our son has grown in both skill and confidence this past year all while having fun. The boys and families support each other like a family. We are excited for next season! - JIBC Parent
JIBC and the coaching staff have helped to build my son’s baseball IQ and let him see that fun and hard work can exist together. - JIBC Parent
My baseball loving son has really gained a lot from the clinics and programs held by JIBC. While there’s a lot of baseball on James Island for slightly older kids through the Island Boys and school teams, there isn’t as much beyond rec ball for the younger (9-12u) players. JIBC has been the perfect mix of higher level instruction and straight up fun. The wood bat games in particular are like something out of “The Sandlot”- unadulterated baseball fun! If your player wants to take their game up a notch, without driving across town, JIBC is perfect. It’s a great addition to the James Island sports world. - JIBC Parent
We had a great experience at the Friday night wooden bat scrimmages. Also the catchers clinic was fabulous! Thank you Chad for doing things in a Well- respected manner. Go JIBC - JIBC Parent
