We get funded through San Diego Regional Center and she was really great in accommodating our request and even offered an additional week of Spring Break camp because our school district had a different timeline than the other coastal schools. Coach Brooks and Coach Zora introduced our kid to lots of fun activities such as building forts, tide pooling, building and flying kites, hiking the slot at Annie's Canyon, and even encountering rattlesnakes. This was such a great outdoor activity for our kid in a safe and supportive environment. Being an only child, his exposure to interacting with multi-aged kids has been a tremendous experience. Thank you, Coastal Kiddos, for helping us build one of our child's best core memories!

They all actually seem to have a big heart for being outside which I am grateful for because it gives that contagious love of nature to this next generation. The activities they chose are all really fun and many of them unique or adapted to fit the week's theme. For example they made fairy houses outside out of natural materials and the staff had to have gotten there early the next day to be sure the fairies left them notes. So sweet and means so much to the littles. Another week they did a fun Tide-pooling scavenger hunt and made these cool nature journals in a way that kids could easily reproduce themselves instead of just buying the journals prepaid. Lots of little touches like that have set this company apart for me. Also appreciated was the customer service and ability to take feedback that I experienced with this company, speaks to the integrity of the staff which is invaluable. Good leadership, staff that really care about kids as well as being stewards of nature. I'm excited to have found them and looking forward to more camps with them in the future.

We worked with NCSA on our sons' combined birthday party. We were looking for a "Sports Themed"…read moreparty for our sons turning 5 and 7. I found NCSA online and reached out to Paul to see what hosting a party with him and his team would look like. I didn't know where to start besides offering up if he had any ideas for kids birthday parties. The whole process of planning the party with Paul was seamless. He was extremely helpful and communicative throughout the entire planning process and was flexible with me when more and more kids were RSVPing yes to the party! He ended up securing three coaches including himself to oversee the wiffle ball, soccer and basketball stations. We had 30 kids at the party and all the kids had a blast! We received really positive feedback from the parents on how well organized and unique the party was to have the coaches there teaching the kids new skills while playing games and scrimmages. I would 100% recommend working with Paul and his team for future birthdays and will definitely sign up for the camps NCSA offers during the summer break!

The staff in the pro shop were very friendly. Shout out to Doug for taking care of us. The shop is stocked with all the latest and greatest paddles, clothing and accessories. There were 7 pickleball courts available for open play during our visit. We played on the 4 courts in front of the pro shop. 2 courts per fenced area with no divider between the courts. Balls will roll onto your court during play, but you knew that anyway. The courts were in great shape as well as the nets. There's covered/shaded seating in this area as you wait for your next game. All the players we played with were very friendly and helpful with explaining how to paddle in for the next game. I hope they're able to open more courts in the future. Regardless, I had a good first visit and I'd play here again if I'm in the neighborhood. Enjoy...

I visited Bobby Riggs for open play and must say that this is a pretty nice facility. However, upon…read morearrival found that the parking situation is not great. There is only a small dedicated lot and street parking. It doesn't help that people camp out in the lot waiting for a spot which blocks the flow of traffic. But parking on the street wasn't too difficult. Check in for open play is in the pro shop which has an excellent variety of all things pickleball including paddles that you can demo for $10. You also need to pay then and there (I wish there was a way to sign up online). It looks like the facility is being remodeled so there were only 4 courts near the pro shop for more advanced, then 2 courts for intermediate. The courts are in very good condition with wind screens and convenient rest areas in the middle. Altogether I had a pretty good time and everyone I encountered was friendly.

My daughter joined their competition crew with zero dance experience other than a 3-day camp elsewhere that taught jazz, ballet, hip hop.

The level of commitment for the crew is akin to a professional dancer, however, this is preparing my daughter for a professional career in the industry so she will be ready for anything if that day comes!!

They were very accommodating after I explained my experience. I appreciate when an owner cares and especially from parent to parent, can relate and adjust. We will try it out again in the future! PREVIOUS REVIEW: After being inundated with emails about how flexible they are about camps, I booked a few days thinking that in the worst case (since you can book the night before) that I could just cancel if my kids didn't love it. Overall, my kids did OK, but I could tell it wasn't something they could do for more than 1 day. I opted to not proceed with the camp, but was told there was nothing they could do for me to give me a refund. I can understand if you need to manage staffing, but if you're allowing people to book the night before, clearly its not a staffing issue, you're just unwilling to give parents their money back. I wouldn't recommend booking more than 1 day at a time.
