About

Youman Wilder has extremely successful Harlem Baseball Hitting Academy Inc in New York City.

Wilder has been able to take kids from the inner cities of New York and make them some of the best baseball players in the country.

Taking the marginal player, the player that no one thinks will be good, maybe the player who's been cut one or two times, and making them a better player overall.

I never want to really take the star athlete I want to take the athletes who needs to improve that's where I think I really do my best work,with those who want to work hard to improve.

    Great personalized baseball instruction. The founder and instructor, Youman Wilder, helps his athletes grow on and off the field by building a great bond with them and becoming someone they can talk to about relatively anything. He preaches the importance of school work and being a person of good character.

    I want to keep what works and upgrade it.
