And our services are offered at an affordable rate - $40 per hour, and $25 for 30 minutes!
We promote conditioning, muscle memory, a winning approach and self confidence - simple as that! Baseball shouldn't be rocket science for your pre-high school player! It should be challenging and fun to learn!

-
Muscle MemoryGood mechanics comes from positive repetition in earnest PRIOR to game play - NOT from the sidelines or stands during the contest! With a regimen of instruction, practice at home, and conscientious application at team practice, your player will learn to react on the field in an excellent manner!
-
The Winning ApproachHaving an intelligent approach on defense, from the mound, and in the batters box are critical to a player's success on the field of play. Muscle memory only goes so far, and kids are often ill prepared for the thinking part of the game. Through our training, your player will learn a simple, yet effective approach for each component of their game.
-
Self ConfidenceWith 6-14 year-old kids, confidence is more important than any other variable when it comes to success on the field. Our primary goal is to instill a high level of confidence through the establishment of muscle memory, a solid approach, and through informative feedback and hands-on experiences designed for success!
