Phoenix 10U Baseball

Our goal is to build a positive team environment where every player learns the game and has a lot of fun along the way. We develop skills and confidence through drills and repetition. Every player comes into the season at a different level of experience, and that is perfectly fine.

Parents and guardians who want to help out at practice are always welcome!

• Baseball is hard, and that’s the point. The best hitters in the world fail two out of every three at-bats. A .300 average is excellent. We are going to strike out, boot grounders, and throw to the wrong base. That’s the game. What matters is how we respond, keep our heads up, and get ready for the next play.
• Effort over outcome. We can’t always control the result, but we can always control our effort. We sprint to first on every ground ball. We’re ready in the field on every pitch. We come to practice ready to work. That part is always on us.
• Pick each other up. When a teammate makes an error or strikes out, we are in their corner. This team succeeds and struggles together. Nobody hangs their head alone.
• Be coachable. Try it the new way, even if it feels awkward. Ask questions. Be open. The players who improve the most are the ones who are willing to be taught.
• Respect everyone in the building. Ourselves, our teammates, our coaches, the umpires, and our opponents. Win or lose, we shake hands and mean it.
• Have fun. This is baseball. If you’re not having fun, something is wrong and we want to know about it.
