The Riverside Rangers Baseball Charter:
Provide sound baseball instruction, coaching and management to help further enhance and improve upon the individuals interpersonal, teamwork, and social skills that may benefit them throughout their lives as citizens.
We also provide the players with the advantage to display their talents to colleges of all levels and to Major league scouts for the opportunity to achieve their goals, whether playing or attaining an education.
I have seen hundreds of players use our baseball instruction and the results were nothing short of astonishing. 45 of my players went on to play professional baseball, while hundreds of high school players, that I personally mentored, went on to play in college, including top Division-I programs.
