LVBA Grassroots Program (up to 9u)

To Sign up  ==> Call us at 610-351-0013 or email us at info.lvba@gmail.com

Over the years, LVBA has been the only baseball academy in the Lehigh Valley to create programs for the “baseball only” athlete to train year round. We have always encouraged our multi-sport athletes to continue to enjoy and compete in all the sports they love, while also making sure the baseball-only athletes have a place to train year round.

After many inquiries, the Director of Baseball Operations, Dylan Dando, has developed a year-round program for young athletes who choose to play baseball only and/or want to make a year-round commitment to baseball.

What LVBA Grassroots Offers:

Fundamental training in all aspects of baseball. This training will be taught by instructors who have played and coached at the highest levels of baseball.

These fundamentals will include but are not limited to:

Pitching, fielding, hitting, throw training, swing training, running, infield play, outfield play, base running, situational baseball, simulated games.

The program will also include unlimited use of LVBA’s 30,000 indoor facility and a LVBA hat & shirt.

The LVBA Grassroots program is the first of its kind. We acknowledge that the kids who grow up in a baseball environment and learn the game at an earlier age have a distinct advantage over other players. This program will give everyone who wants the opportunity to “Grow up in baseball”, the ability to do so. There are very few kids who have the luxury of being raised by a baseball professional or baseball player. Grassroots will offer that opportunity to all kids who see themselves as baseball players for life.

Space will be limited to 20 players per age group.

LVBA team training will begin in December and end in February.

Team training will be administered by LVBA coaches, staff and Director of Baseball Operations Dylan Dando.

“The LVBA Team Training Program was put together to give players in our program a head start on the Spring/Summer season. I think it is important that their workouts are monitored by the coaches who will be coaching them as well as training as a team continuing with the competition within a team during the winter is the best way to maximize results and improve as an individual.”

“The LVBA Team Training Program will be the best way for a new player to get his foot in the door at LVBA prior to the evaluation process. We are looking for serious players and the willingness to train throughout the winter is what it takes.”  ---- Dylan Dando
