I hope school is off to a great start and that your boys are working hard in whatever sport they're active in right now. While the youth sports world slowly (and sadly) moves more towards specialization at a younger and younger age, I would recommend that you resist the urge to pick focusing on only …
Spring Training's 9th Annual Summer Camp program is off to another amazing start and all the coaches are fired up for the remaining sessions of Baseball and Softball Camp in Palos Verdes and Redondo Beach!! We're getting some great skill work in and the kids are having an absolute blast. Here are some of my …
The weather report for today is...awesome with a chance of more awesome.
