Competitive youth baseball teams and training in the Portland Metro Area

Baseball to Justin has always been about having fun and staying loose and relaxed on the field. It wasn’t always that way and he was his toughest critic. Growing up Justin learned quickly that mistakes and failures are part of the game and players need to learn from them and there will always be another play to make an adjustmen. It is a core part of his coaching philosophy and something he hopes to teach the athletes he trains.

In high school Justin was a 1st team all-league in the Pacific Conference and Honorable mention all-state as an outfielder. He then went on to play college baseball for Clackamas Community College for 2 years before deciding to pivot to coaching and sharing his knowledge with young players.

As Justin began coaching he quickly realized his natural style was a laid back approach that teaches athletes the fun and enjoyment of the game. He loves to get in on a game of catch with players or lead by example and demonstrate visually what he is trying to teach. Justin believes that effort is one of the factors we can always control and he expects his players to give it on every play. Working their hardest and giving their best is what ultimately makes the game fun and enjoyable as they see it pay off on the field.

Justin has coached competitive baseball for 7 years at the youth and high school level. He enjoys training infield, outfield, and hitting and looks forward to working with you and passing along his love of the game!
