Hit bombs. Throw gas. Run fast.
High school coaches and college scouts look for five tools. So that’s what we focus on too.
Off Day Camps
Make the day off of school a productive one.
Indoor Hitting League
Real games on HitTrax, Saturdays all winter.
Private Lessons
Thirty minutes. One player, one coach.
Skills Classes
Small groups. Hitting, pitching, catching, infield.
Speed and Power
Strength, speed and rotational power, built for baseball.
We measure everything.
Opinions about a swing are cheap. Numbers show a player what actually changed between November and April.
HitTrax
Exit velocity, launch angle and spray charts on swings in our HitTrax cage. It also powers our indoor hitting leagues.
Blast Motion
Bat sensors that measure bat speed, swing path and rotation, the mechanics underneath the result.
Our throwing work follows Driveline methodology: weighted balls, constraint drills and pull-downs, scaled to age.
Fifty-plus reviews and counting
We’d rather you hear it from the parents who have been here.
★★★★★
Coaches do a great job recognizing the unique strengths and talents of each player and use that understanding to help every athlete grow. As a result, players not only improve their skills, they also build a genuine love for the game.
Scott S.★★★★★
The program truly has an emphasis on development not just winning … Jason absolutely wants each player to improve and eventually make their high school team.
Jennifer F.★★★★★
One of the few programs in the area that can teach your child the correct way to play the game. Their pro inspired infield training is top notch and it won’t take you long to notice big changes in your kids gameplay.

Seven thousand square feet on Corporate Woods Parkway in Vernon Hills. Six batting cages, one running HitTrax. Pull the cages back and the same room opens into turf for defense, throwing, and speed and power.
