Angels Baseball

ANGELS Baseball provides youth baseball players with the most conducive atmosphere to grow their potential in the classroom, sport and life. Growth is most realized when we surround ourselves with the right people and opportunities that both opens the door to knowledge and promotes personal growth. We believe in surrounding players with others that might be smarter, faster, stronger and better. This constantly creates a challenging and competitive atmosphere which actually accelerates growth. “If you are always at the head of the class, you are probably in the wrong class.” We believe that players should always be challenged. This “growth environment” always challenges them to work harder and get better. When our daily work routines get too easy or comfortable, then we shortchange ourselves and that stunts development. It is healthy, from time to time, to be in over our heads. It forces you to swim and grow your potential! The Angels Curriculum is one of affirmation. It is an environment of encouragement from the coaches and players alike. The encouragement serves as oxygen to the soul and allows everyone’s spirit and self esteem to grow. The Angels atmosphere is one where failure is not the enemy! It is difficult to grow and develop in an atmosphere where you are not free to fail. The best growth atmosphere rewards risk taking----mistakes are accepted as a natural part of life and learning. Failure should be viewed as a learning tool and a stepping stone to success. The Angels curriculum is one where everyone embraces hard work and rewards personal growth. Programs that prioritize personal growth and constantly encourages one another to work harder leads to making oneself better today than they were yesterday. NOTE: We currently operate our of Southeast PA and Montgomery County, MD. NOTE: Website is currently in development.

Angels Baseball uses the sport of baseball as a medium to help kids learn valuable life skills. We currently offer a Fall and Spring Program. These are not travel teams and accept everyone that registers. Each week during the seasons, each player receives a one-page write-up on a different word that serves as that week life lesson focus word (Ex. Leadership, Grit, Humble, etc). Players are responsible for reading the document and coaches will be incorporating lessons in the week's practices and games around that word. Angels Baseball also conducts Coaches Clinics where we help coaches understand HOW they should be teaching. Most, if not all coaches clinics focus on WHAT to teach. However, it's more important how skills are taught. In the summer, Angels Baseball runs summer camps and will soon be launching its "Be Accountable" program. The "Be Accountable" program works with youth baseball players to help them understand that they are responsible for defining their success. We help them understand accountability while also giving them the tools they need to improve their game w/o the need of others.

SSL Opportunities: During summer months, we run our Youth Development Program in conjunction with schools that operate Linkages to Learning programs.  We will ask for student volunteers to be group leads during physical activities and indoor classroom discussions.  We may also ask for student volunteers to help us in the Fall and/or Spring to help lead groups during our baseball programs.  The opportunities we offer students center around leadership of kids ages 9-12.
