THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS!
With a balanced approach to training, practice and competition, Alberta Cal Ripken High Performance Program offers players an opportunity to be seen and trained by professional coaches with a common goal to better the baseball culture in Alberta. Players drafted into the High Performance Program will get a head start towards being a part of a system designed to focus on development, play with like-minded peers at similar ability levels, while still staying primarily within local areas. Players will be expected to try out and, if selected, will be drafted onto teams with a primary focus towards development and growth, as an athlete and a person.
