This Fall, Eagan Baseball Players will have a great new opportunity to put in some off-season work and get some extra coaching.

Please note that players should sign up for the age they played for the 2018 season.

The EBA is offering two four-week programs: Session 1 for 2018 8U to 10U players and Session 2 for 2018 11U and 12U players. Coached by CBO Toby and Team.

The EBA is offering an eight-week program: Session 3 for 2018 13U players. Coached by Adam Huseman and Team.

 The emphasis for the Fall Academy will be:

1. Throwing mechanics: Throwing mechanics are essential to becoming an effective baseball player and starting to learn at an early age will not only help each athlete become a better baseball player but will have a huge role in maintaining a healthy and strong arm for years to come. Learning to throw the proper way to keep a healthy arm will be a main objective.

1. Fielding and Hitting fundamentals
2. Fun through game-like situations and competition

Eagan Baseball offers two programs: In-House and Travel.

In-house baseball is available to players from Pre-K through their senior year in high school. Some older ages will travel to surrounding communities for games, but most play for in-house will be in Eagan. See registration tab for more information on in-house schedules. In-house is a less competitive, less time intense option for players who enjoy baseball but do not want to commit to a travel schedule. 

The Traveling Baseball program provides intensive skill development and a high level of competition. The program offers opportunities to develop confidence and teamwork while competing with teams representing other area communities.  

Eagan Baseball follows the EAA Scholarship process. Please see the documents below for EAA scholarship information and the EAA scholarship application. 

If a family does not meet the EAA scholarship requirements yet still is in need of a hardship scholarship, please submit the completed scholarship application form with an explanation of hardship needs and your application will be reviewed. 

If you plan to be a coach or assistant coach for EBA during the 2018 season, you must be current in your Concussion Awareness Training.  Minnesota state law requires all youth sport coaches to complete Concussion Awareness Training at least once every 3 years.  

If your training is current, be sure to have your certificate with you at all times in the dugout.  If you have never completed the training or need to update, you can follow this link to complete the CDC's online training module.  The training only takes 30-40 minutes and can be completed at your convenience.  Please be sure to print and save your Certificate of Completion.
