We feel we have a highly qualified staff not only who are good teachers of the game, but good people that will make your child a better baseball player. We are not into gimmicks, padding our resumes', cloning players, amateurish philosophies. We are not trying to get our names out in the baseball world. Our names are already out there. We are here to sincerely help the players get better. Its not about us. Its about the player. Our approach/BRAND is basic, fundamental and a common sense approach to the game. We are not here to clone kids, or come up with the "new way" to teach baseball. That is all amateur/gimmick stuff. We are here to see what the player has and work with him or her from there. We are extremely confident that after the " Pro Player Development clinic" is over, your child will be a much better baseball player and that will lead to them having more fun. Isn't that what its all about anyway?
