"A common remark coaches and parents share with players all the time is that 'You should have fun when you play baseball' and it's true. However, it is not fun when a player consistently strikes out, makes an error or can't throw strikes. If these same players do not receive proper training, we are setting these players up to fail, and having fun is out of the question."
Mike Martin, LVBA President, former Chicago Cub

Parent's Comments

"This is an extremely good program that teaches the proper techniques to its students. Well educated staff that cares about the progression of the players."
Michael Swift

"I liked the way the kids were treated and talked to. Like adults. It seemed every coach was able to take a personal and closer look at each kid and offer proper instruction and attention."
Michael & Lena Campanella
