A: By signing up for Building Blocks Baseball your child is not guaranteed to make a select baseball team. However, your child will experience what it's like to be a part of a team, to take direction from an experienced coach and their love of the game will grow. Each class teaches your child a different Baseball skill hitting, throwing, catching, fielding, athleticism, and teamwork. If they remember the phrase of the day they can come home with a baseball card. For more information about our curriculum see the Curriculum page.
