The Danville Baseball Academy kicked off yet another season in September. Danville Baseball Academy is an all in one program for anyone interested in their baseball or softball needs!!! We are excited about the next group of players we get to take to the next level. Through proper training and development, we see each and every player improve their games within weeks. Not only do we take pride in getting them better at the game, but we try our best to make the players better people as well.
This Fall and Winter we will run our 9U-18U teams in September-November. These teams will practice 1-2 times a week and play games on the weekends. Our goal for the younger age groups (9U-14U ) is teaching the proper fundamentals, teaching the “real game”, and getting game reps on the field. For the older age groups (15U-18U) it is all about high school prep and getting ready for high school tryouts and making their high school baseball teams. For the older age groups, we try our best to group the kids with their peers from high school, which allows for cohesiveness on the field thus producing a better game product come the high school season.
As we move into the Winter months our ever so popular hitting and catching classes take place. For the hitting classes we follow a proven regimen that advances the hitting capability of the player. From focused drills to video analysis, players progress weekly into strong and elite hitters. For catching classes – these are for the actual CATCHER POSITION – we work on receiving, blocking, controlling the game and much more. We have seen drastic improvement from players that come to our classes.
