Where preparation meets competition
Pine Tar Academy's fall baseball program offers athletes the opportunity to develop their individual skills in a team environment with experienced coaches. Our exposure teams provide players with a higher level of competitive experience and/or exposure to college recruiters.
OUR PROCESS:
The mission of our Club Teams is to develop baseball players in a process oriented, competitive team environment. Young men who find success with PTA share these core traits: Respect, character, dedication, self-awareness, teamwork, positive energy and hard work.
Our promise to every club player and family is no more than a 20% difference in playing time or at bats for all players. Our mission is player development first and this can't happen if players don't get a chance to play.
DURATION:
The season beings early August and runs through October.
TEAMS:
Upperclass & Underclass Teams: Teams are geared towards players who are eager to compete at a higher level of training & competition and looking for top exposure to college scouts. Upperclass is the top 17U/18u team. Underclass is the top 15U/16u team.
9u-18u: Our traditional fall program aimed at giving players the chance to grow and develop their individual skills in a team & game setting.
