WHO WE RECRUIT
A program with something to prove
Players who work
We do not recruit resumes. We recruit the kid who wants the ball late and shows up again the next morning.
Families who want the receipt
Every reading, every assessment and every session lands on one record the family can open from a phone.
Coaches who measure
Rapsodo, force plates and the stopwatch feed the same chart instead of three different notebooks.
Anyone chasing a roster spot
Eleven age divisions and a recruiting staff that has put more than sixty players into college programs since 2022.
Ninth inning of a 105 degree day in Georgia, and they want it again tomorrow.
TWO FACILITIES. ONE PROGRAM.
One record, whichever building he trains in.
One player record
A player who lifts in Georgia and hits in Florida has one development history, not two.
