Spring Competition Program
Individual team and/or camp style practices will take place at Cotton Ranch two days per week for 14 weeks.

Why Join This Program?
Because we’re offering Something Different.
The Fall Season will span 12 weeks and include multiple training sessions. This program can serve as your sole fall training, or you may choose to participate in it alongside your regular Fall Tournament Organization.
The Spring Season will consist of a full High School Schedule with roughly 2 practices per week.
Our staff is made up of some of the most experienced and decorated coaches in the country. Players will have the chance to train under high-level mentors who bring decades of collegiate and professional experience to the field.
This is an inclusive program that is meant for all varieties of ability in the fall with opportunities to make our Spring teams. We do NOT offer academic services, only baseball development/competition.
There is no expectation for anyone to play in our Non-Homeschool Organization. You do not have to be a Twelve member to participate.
