How are you preparing for the season?

The high school baseball season is a little over 2 months away from beginning. The difference between making and not making the team will be an evaluation over the course of 3-4 days which is often indoors. You need to stand out as a player and be fully prepared by tryouts. How are you preparing for the season? Speed Boosters has teamed up with St. Louis Baseball & Fastpitch Academy to offer 90 minutes of baseball training for just $10. On Tuesdays and Thursdays beginning January 13th athletes will be able to compete in Nike SPARQ training for 40 minutes followed by 40 minutes of hitting (tee, soft toss, short toss, live). All sessions take place from 3:30-4:45 p.m. at St. Louis Baseball & Fastpitch Academy. For more information contact sean.erwin@speedboosters.net

Speed Boosters & Grizzlies Baseball Academy


Speed Boosters is proud to announce the addition of offering training at a second facility. For the past three years we have been training out of St. Louis Baseball and Fastpitch Academy (STLBA) and have traveled to many other facilities, practices, and showcases to not only train but to also SPARQ test nearly 4000 athletes. The involvement and development of athletes at STLBA has been outstanding. We will now be bringing our proven and innovative training to the metro east through a partnership with the Grizzlies Baseball Academy. On January 10th the Grizzlies Baseball Academy will open the doors to their new state of the art training facility at GCS Stadium. The facility will be a one stop shop for a players baseball training needs. The facility is a great place to get individual instruction from former pro players or to bring your team to practice. Additionally they have the Pro Batter PX2 which is a real life Major League pitching simulator that is the first of its kind in the St. Louis area. To finalize a players baseball training needs we at Speed Boosters will be offering multiple services including SPARQ training and testing, sports performance training (combining strength & SPARQ training), sports nutrition consulting, and sports performance training consulting. We are excited about this partnership and are looking forward to helping metro east athletes reach their full potential and achieve their goals.
