Welcome to GRAND SLAM ACADEMY - home of the Grand Slam baseball teams
and private instruction. Our team programs range in age, select level 9U
to 14U, and the High School Showcase Program with teams from 15U to 18U.
We are here to help you become the best player you can be, with our teams
and our private instruction, and a facility unmatched in the Austin Area.
Our mission here at GSA, is to develop and cultivate athletes, not only to
prepare them for the challenges in playing baseball, but also the challenges
in life. We are committed to offering players at a high skill level, access
to the best in teams, training facility, and instruction. We are a program
dedicated to providing players with the highest level of training, in a
stimulating learning environment, that maximizes the learning curve, improving
the players' ability to perform in game situations, while promoting our sport
with passion and integrity.
We feel it takes time to properly develop as a player, and with this time comes
patience, and hard work - it is a marathon, not a sprint. The goal for any young
player, is to play high school varsity baseball, and maybe, with hard work, skill
and luck, college baseball and beyond.
Great weather and a huge turnout at the Grand Slam Scout Day, November 1, at St. Mary's University, with 35 college coaches, and 12 MLB scouts in attendance. This showcase event brings exposure and opportunity to our high school players that want to play college and/or professional baseball.
