If I could give zero stars, I would. Kathryn creates an incredibly toxic environment that destroys players' confidence instead of building it. She belittles athletes and uses mentally abusive tactics that make the game unbearable. Instead of motivating players, she tears them down by avoiding confrontation, blames loses on individual players, and goes out of her way to embarrass girls in front of the entire team for absolutely no reason instead of speaking to them in private. MANY talented players (24 in the last 3 years of Kathryn and Jackie being coaches at Davenport to be exact) have quit because of the emotional toll and sheer unhappiness she makes everyone feel. If you care about your mental health and love for the game, stay far away from this program.
