YEARLY TIMELINE
We do things differently…
When creating our program, one of the most important things we had in mind was to be unique and unlike any other program in the area. We believe in molding the student-athlete. The way our travel team schedule works is unlike anyone else. We believe in family time, a social life, playing multiple sports, all while keeping a consistent balance that maximizes our players well-being and baseball life. This is how we do it…
JULY
Tryouts:
Tryouts for the following spring/summer season begin in mid July. We begin our tryouts early, so we have our rosters picked and deposits in by August 1st. This allows us to begin accepting payments immediately and begin our monthly payment plans September 1st with all teams paid in full by March 1st of the game play year.
Payments:
Payments are due on the 1st of each month. The cost of Travel Baseball can be an expensive price for families to pay. By accepting deposits by 8/1 each year, it allows us to have 7 months of payments so we can really stretch out the expense and burden on our families
SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER
Fall Ball
Depending on interest in fall ball, we always try to field teams to play in an 8 week fall team. Costs for this are normally around $500 a player and we still get anywhere from 12-20 games in along with 10 practices! Its a major training option at an amazing value.
If we do not have enough interest at a particular age group to field an age specific team, we run a developmental 2x practice clinic a week for 9/10u, 11/12u, and 13-15u. Still super affordable at $400 a player, we are able to really dig deep and train our players on advanced concepts.
Private Lessons:
During the months of September through December we begin our private lessons and group hitting pitching/catching/fielding clinics. This is the time to perfect your skills and mechanics and get a head start on your winter/spring training.
Private Baseball Lessons cost $55 per 30 minute 1-on-1 lesson. (Non-Energy Player Member = $60 per 30 minute 1-on-1 lesson.)
We have packages that lower the costs down to as much as $40 a half hour!
Individual & Team Lifts:
We hold $15 group strength classes (team lifts) throughout each week of the year. Hours vary depending on the season. These lifts are optional and are not included in the tuition package. They are wonderful for building strength, stamina, body control, and overall athletic growth. Each time slot is different for each age specific group. For instance, the 8-12 year olds have a much different lift than the 13-18 year olds. Non-Energy Player Member costs = $20.
Team lifts included with tuition begin in October and run for 8 weeks.
Uniform Fitting
All in the works for 2023-2024!
Included in tuition are:
Practice Shorts
Practice Shirt
Practice Hat
Bat Bag
Players are responsible for purchasing the following package from our uniform provider including:
2 custom jerseys
2 custom game pants
2 belts
2 socks
practice jersey
1/4 zip cage jacket
Fitting is done and guaranteed through the Decker Sports App. You take a photo of your child and they fit them perfectly and send the gear directly to you eliminating the always frustrating process of uniform fitting so we can focus on training your players even more!
Fall Team Store
Our players receive many items included in their team tuition as shown above and parents are responsible for the on field apparel in addition to what is shown above. Many kids want extra gear as well as parents! For our Fall apparel order we have many things from sweatshirts and sweatpants, to mock jerseys for parents, to custom batting gloves and more! We love when our families get decked out in Energy Baseball gear!
Community Service:
Each player will have to complete a mandatory 5 hour community service project. The players are allowed to do the project all at once or break it up into as many as 5 one hour sessions. After each session is completed, the player will write a paragraph on their experiences while answering questions assigned by the program. Each player must complete their project before the first practice in January.
Fundraising:
Throughout the year we hold many different fundraisers in accordance with our 501(c)(3) charitable booster club run by our parents in the program. The booster club helps raise funds for our program which are dispersed in August at the end of the year. Funds go back to our parents and players in many different ways such as scholarships, additional apparel, and additional training equipment.
NOVEMBER-MARCH
Private Lessons:
Our group lessons continue throughout the months of January until the end of March. This is a wonderful way for our players to get extra attention and extra work with coaches able to work more directly with each players specific needs for improvement.
Indoor Baseball Practices:
Baseball practices begin in mid November and run until we can get outside! Normally in early April.
APRIL-MAY
9u, 10u, 11u, 12u, 13u, 14u, NBS League Games Begin:
Our NBS League play teams begin playing tournament games in early April!
Spring Apparel Order:
We know our players want extra gear and apparel. We also know our parents who missed out on our Fall apparel order want to gear up for the season. With this said, we have our Spring Apparel order take place in early April.
MAY-JULY
15u, 16u NBS Teams Begin in June
College Showcase Begins in Mid June
Tournaments + Playoffs continue until Early July for All Other Teams
Outdoor Practices:
We practice once per week.
Program Wide Awards Banquet:
The week before tryouts for the next year, we hold an annual Energy Baseball Awards Banquet celebrating the teams successes as well as individual successes throughout the prior year.
