Her family greatly appreciated the sports psychology emphasis provided. “Robin and her coaching staff bring the very best out of the kids. 90TEN offers modern drills and techniques with old-fashioned work ethics. Emma has learned so much about friendship, respect, preparation, nutrition and competition. Robin teaches that the athletes need to be ready themselves and not just rely on their parents getting them ready. This mental preparedness has helped our daughter a ton. The building of her confidence and being part of something so positive has been a really good for Emma.”
