Parkland Student Athlete Academy
The Parkland Twins Baseball Academy is a High Performance Program. The Parkland Twins operate under the banner of PMBA, and are the competitive stream for baseball players looking to develop their skills to the highest level possible. The Parkland Twins Baseball Academy will work with those PSAA students who are dedicated baseball players: students who want to develop their skills to play at the next level and perform at their peak in the classroom.
Our program is an intense and fun way to train and develop all aspects of the game. We focus on elite skill development, with the intention of helping athletes achieve their maximum potential while fostering their passion and understanding for the game. Whether it be hitting, fielding, throwing, pitching, or base running, the skills each player in this program will acquire will help them to get to the next level.
Student athletes who are accepted into the program will typically be playing in the higher levels of their respective age groups. Parkland Twins Baseball Academy athletes have a passion for their sport, a high motivation to set and achieve goals, and develop leadership qualities within the sport and community. The skill and training programs offered through the Parkland Twins Baseball Academy will provide the student athletes every opportunity to discover themselves, their strengths and their current limitations, and then put a plan in place to overcome these limitations and become the best student, athlete and citizen they can be.
