| Experience | Our team members have diverse backgrounds. Experience playing or coaching at the high school, collegiate, or professional level is helpful. However, if a franchisee lacks this type of background, he or she must be able to hire individuals with this baseball and softball experience. Although we would never dictate how a coach should teach, the terms they should use, or their particular philosophical beliefs we do offer ongoing training in these areas. The franchise company provides the program structure and techniques to maximize revenue with every lesson and clinic that your facility provides. | |
