"The Strive basketball team were professional and genuine. The tour was an amazing experience for my son. Jono went the extra mile to provide the group with information on college requirements, eligibility and expectations . He provided feedback and scaffolded goals for each player for peak performance on tour. Communication and the process was seamless ! My son was successful in gaining interest and a NCAA offer.
More importantly he made memories and friendships that will last a lifetime !! Highly recommend."
