What families say

“I have sent my boy to numerous camps throughout the Tri-Valley. Matt and his staff are not out there just going through the motions and letting the kids run wild and crazy. They genuinely push the kids to get better while having fun with them. I wouldn’t send my kid to any other organization” — Greg S.

“The Danville Baseball Academy is the place to be. We have been to other camps and they are a waste of my money and time. The guys at DBA push the kids to get better and teach the game. I will keep sending my 3 boys back to Danville Baseball” — Chad P.

“The thing I loved the most while I was watching is the coaches aren’t afraid to call out the kids who are goofing around and distracting the rest of the group. They covered most of the skills needed to play, and my son had a great time. The coaches engage the kids in a positive and fun manner” — Jennifer T.
