What's wrong with youth baseball & Softball?

Make baseball great again. Attention grabbing gamified skill development. Make Next Season Your Best

Boring

Boring

Have you noticed youth baseball and softball games encourage stealing bases more than getting hits?  In fact, on average there are 20.6 stolen bases versus 11.5 hits per game.

Fastpitch softball players love our camp. More balls in play. No hit by pitch. No walks. No steals.

Boring

Boring

A typical youth game lasting four innings has only  7.9 balls-in-play. How can your player get better when she/he doesn't have the opportunity to field a ball?

Baseball in field. Camp is better than batting cages for development. Game experience.

Gone!

Boring

Gone!

In a 1.5-hour game, data shows players only get 1.6 plate appearances per game. Maybe this is why their confidence waivers so much when they're at the plate?


Let's face it, we need to do something different to keep our kids in this game.

Top rated. Baseball, Theme Park, Swim Meet, Summer Camp, & Video Games wrapped up into one.
"Mom. Dad. I don't want to play anymore."

Keep your kid in the game

On average, kids leave soft/baseball before they're 11 years old because it's not fun - there's not enough action. Our camps, leagues, and sponsored events remove the slow parts and replace them with action-packed, development-rich, and positively fun experiences -- keeping kids in the game.

FALL 5-PITCH PLUCKY LEAGUE - SEPTEMBER 5 TO OCTOBER 24

GET INTO THE LEAGUE THAT'S Changing the Game

JOIN OUR FALL 5-PITCH PLUCKY LEAGUE

Your kid is going to love playing 5-Pitch Plucky (regardless of what skill level). It's SO MUCH FUN! We've modified the rules just a bit so that one, 80-minute game gives ballplayers 4X more at-bats than a typical youth baseball game. More at-bats create more balls-in-play and that makes baseball more fun because they're having to make defensive plays. This is a "baseball merry-go-round." We're doing to baseball what Topgolf did to bring more people to golf (but without the alcohol!!).Action-packed. Development-rich. Positively fun.

Your player needs this

Our camps, leagues, and events are for softball and baseball players of all skill levels ages 9 - 12.  Our mission is to keep kids in the game.


We took the boredom out of the game and replaced it with non-stop fun, non-stop action, and non-stop development. Players get to participate in skill-specific instruction like sliding, bunting, base running, diving catches, and more. When they're not receiving instruction, Campers play a game we invented called the "5-Pitch Plucky."  


Each camp, league, and event starts with the National Anthem, a commitment to effort - not outcome, ROOTS (respect for the rules/officials/opponents/teammates/self), and having fun.  We also try to sneak in "God Bless America" at some point too.  


There are no spectators during camp, but family members can watch the last 5-Pitch Plucky on the last day of camp to observe how much their ballplayer has improved.  


All RGS events end with a Recognition ceremony.  We highlight the individuals for character traits that make a champion like Hustle, Effort, Attitude, and Sportsmanship.   


All Runner Gunner Slugger camps, leagues, and events are designed for kids.  Whether your player is on a travel team or barely able to swing a bat, we guarantee your player will have a blast AND receive development that will encourage them to continue improving.
