Complaint Review: Diamond sports group

 This all American organization is a waste of money. There are no set rules other than all children must play before halftime. This means you can literally pay 450 for your child to get one play in the game. My son got 2 plays. To begin, there is a 450 base pay to participate. These are quote on quote the best of the best players across the country when actually it's who has 450. Next, there is a 50 convience fee for not staying at their hotels of choice. Next, you have to pay for tickets to watch your child play. I have 2 playing so I had to pay 40 for myself and my husband because they played on separate days a 6th and a 3rd grader. Their head coach told them going to the meet and greet affected their playing time. My son went but that was another 27.10. Also, my son had to change his number as well as 2 other kids because they didn't take the time to check the roster before we arrived. The uniforms are nice. The pep rally was great. I loved how they emphasized on good grades. I spoke with the coach to express my concerns during 4 th quarter. He said it was too late all they could do is try to let him play next time for free. I spoke with the owner Donnell Britt and I admit I was loud but at that point . Another coach had lied and said my son told him that his head was hurting that's why he didn't play. I told him my son played all of 10 seconds. He told me that was highly unlikely. Which was true he played longer than 10 seconds. He had two plays to be exact. He said they needed to watch the tape. People do not pay for their child to warm the bench. They gave us a uniform , socks , gloves, lanyard, a medal, and a book bag if you signed up early. My son has went to camps and games that cost more money than this and really enjoyed himself. This whole experience has been terrible and to make it worse the owners comment" if your child played 10 seconds then I'll give your money back" shows exactly what's important when it comes to these kids. Money and not the experience and exposure.
