Our Team

There’s a few things I’d like you to know about me. First and foremost, I love baseball. Secondly, I’m a student of the game, and I love teaching what I believe to kids of all ages and abilities. Third, I love Cape Cod. I’ve been here since the late ’60s and, after spending 15-years running my baseball club off-Cape – I finally realized that the Cape Cod economy could support a club like mine after all. I’ve been located in Bourne ever since.
My mission is to provide kids with high quality, affordable baseball and softball instruction. I’ve created a club atmosphere at a place where people feel they belong, a place where players are comfortable. It’s a club where kids can work hard on developing their baseball skills, but also relax with likeminded friends in a positive, motivational environment. Through competition in sports and other games, children and young adults gain the skills needed to cope with and overcome our imperfect human condition. I’ve created a baseball hotbed. Over the years, many of our players have been scouted by colleges and the professional ranks, as they look for and find real ballplayers.
As Honus Wagner said, “There ain’t much to being a ballplayer, that is, if you’re a ballplayer”.
On a personal note, I gotta have the ocean and a hand-picked quohog dressed with lemon, ketchup and tabasco. But I also have to have a fastball in on the hands, a fisted chopper, and a one-handed dish to first…one out.
