Spring Training Academy at The Lab begins March 16.

All skill levels are welcome. This program is designed for players who want to continue their baseball careers beyond high school, as well as those looking to build strong fundamental skills to be more confident and effective for their Little League teams this season. Players will receive quality instruction in a structured, supportive environment focused on proper mechanics, effort, and accountability.

Pitching instruction will include mechanical development, field coverage and pickoff moves, age-appropriate pitch development, pitch sequencing, and developing velocity through efficient use of the kinetic chain.

Defensive training will focus on proper mechanics, footwork, throwing action, and situational positioning.

Hitting instruction will cover swing mechanics, approach at the plate, and bunting, with an emphasis on developing bat speed through efficient use of the kinetic chain.

All sessions will be video recorded and shared with families to support at-home drills and provide insight into what each player is learning.

📞 Please call 231-622-3634 to book your spot.
