Just wanted to let you know that I got offered a scholarship to the AIS... It's a dream come true and I couldn't have done it without your help. Thanks for everything man.
player

Really, impressed. I haven't see such positive change in skill level after any academy yet, and you're only 2 days in. Very good.

After 5 games, Max is leading the scoring in his entire division. He told me that 'the training with Marshall is really helping me'.

Hi Marshall, just wanted to say a MASSIVE thank you. The 4 kids I brought with me ALL loved it and are already asking when the next one is.
They have done a few clinics and they all agreed this has been their favourite.
PARENT

I used a move you showed me, to put the ball in front and low against taller players... I managed to top score with 17 and our team won, against the top of the ladder redbacks team. I've been using lots of ur moves as much as possible, when possible.
Player

Just wanted to say thank you for the time that you've put into Jye, making him a better ball player. He was voted MVP for his team at the Tigers WABL awards night. He couldn't have done it without you.
PARENT

Casey had an awesome time mate, said the best academy she's been to yet. Excited for tomorrow!
