Our players, coaches, and families have been involved with travel baseball, high school baseball, Legion baseball, club baseball, recreational baseball, college baseball, and professional baseball. WE LOVE BASEBALL in all its forms. There are many great travel teams out there that fit their players well. Everyone has to evaluate their path forward and we are here to offer you a development-first approach to summer baseball. 

 We compare ourselves to travel baseball because we know what price families pay to play travel (in time, money, and emotion). We also know it isn't the right fit for every player. Travel ball increasingly focuses on squeezing in as many games as possible. In some organizations, this leaves little time for practice and training. It also leads to arm issues for players not getting a full arm care program. 

Unfortunately, development programs like ours are not widely known or understood. They can be a great compliment to travel baseball for players and coaches who take advantage of what we offer. The key is making time in the summer for a development program. Many travel teams will be supportive of their players taking 2 weeks out of tournament play to focus on skill-building because they know they'll return a better teammate. In those situations, it is HBHQ + Summer Travel Baseball.

HBHQ is also a great alternative for players looking for a different path than tons of games and limited time to develop, train, learn, and recover. Players who elect development-focused programs like ours spend their summer focused on training and attending camps. Colleges hold 1 and 2-day camps for players targeting their school. Players attend showcases, guest play, and play for one-off teams that form for a weekend tournament. If you want to play baseball, there is baseball to be played.

Most importantly, you have the freedom to make your schedule around development and training time instead of squeezing in training around tournaments.
