From Diamonds to Degrees:

At the Elite Development Academy, we are more than just a baseball program. We are coaches, community-based organizations, advocates, academics, and educators committed to using the power of sports to put in to action evidence-based interventions that address equity barriers and uplift underserved youth.

​

Equity-driven PROGRAMS for empowerment

Our dedicated team combines expertise in baseball and social sciences, and we believe in the transformative power of baseball as a vehicle for change. Our evidence-based programs are designed to empower youth from underserved communities by providing opportunities, resources, and mentorship that go beyond the game. Through our comprehensive program that includes access to scholarship and workforce opportunities supported by holistic wraparound services, we not only develop baseball skills but also foster essential life skills such as teamwork, resilience, and leadership. We aim to inspire well-rounded individuals who can thrive on and off the field.
