Servant Sports
About
We are a Christ-Centered Baseball Training Organization.
Our mission is to serve Jesus Christ through the avenue of teaching baseball skills. Not only do we focus on baseball (hitting, fielding and throwing) fundamentals as well as improving hitting accuracy and power as well as arm speed/accuracy, we also focus on teaching young men the importance of hard work, discipline, integrity and faith.
Since our mission is to serve Jesus Christ, our training is for everyone and is free if needed. Payment is accepted but is optional - pay what you can - pay what you want. No questions asked. We are not in this for the money.
