Showcase Baseball Academy

"A wonderful facility with a huge team of some of the most supportive and encouraging baseball folks in the area. Bonus points: they keep Christ at the center of their organization. Love the camps, one-on-one lessons and the "His Way" events we have taken part in."

"Had a lot of hope for joining the SBA organization. After one season of daddy ball, no instruction or growth during practice, kids getting yelled at (not in the good way, in a demeaning way), kids getting kicked off the team because their parents ask questions, multiple tournaments cancelled (where’s the refund?) and the season ending prematurely (where’s the refund?) - we are happy to done with this “organization” and moving on."

"I brought my 5 year old there and he worked with coach Cruz! I felt welcomed on our first visit and felt I was given proper attention. More over, it truly wasn’t about me, by the way I never do reviews. However, when it comes to my child / children, I do READ reviews. That being said let me start here: our experience was FANTASTIC! As a person in the customer service industry, I have now been shown what I will further expect. Coach Cruz, as well as the other staff there that day, made my 5 year old comfortable, relaxed, and part of the team. This is why I leave this review….it’s not about me it’s about him!!! TEAM, you hit a grand slam here. He will be a part of this program and HE WILL be a star. He’ll do so because of your guidance and values. I leave this review as a true testimony as to what this program is…..there’s no 5U PROGRAM!!!! There’s only coaching / mentoring! I read many reviews here and many talk of falling short in 1 situation!!! ONE!!!! Do we teach our kids to never fail? Or do we teach them that in order to grow you must fail???! I wanted to leave a true heart felt review from our experience. I’ll never ask anyone to base there’s off mine. However, mine is factual. I hope this helps future enrollees when deciding: cost, time, etc. You can never invest enough time in children!!! -Fickert"

"Parents of Baseball Players: I am new to the area and have a son who plays D1 baseball on the West Coast. He was here for the holidays and needed a place to practice and was referred to Showcase Baseball Academy, run by Jake Robbins. I have coached baseball at many levels and watched my son participate in several travel programs; Jake and his coaching staff are some of the finest coaches I have ever been around. Their ability to communicate high level concepts in a simple and understandable form for players at all levels is exceptional. I highly recommend reaching out to Showcase Baseball Academy/Jake if your child is interested in learning the game of Baseball!!"

"My son spent two years with SBA. We were very good about paying fees prior to the season. My son was required to take the fall off for medical reasons. When we requested a refund or credit towards lessons, they offered us 25% of what we paid. In addition, they refused to talk with us by phone to discuss an amicable settlement. We had planned to return for the next season but will not after the treatment we received. We have been a part of several baseball travel groups in the Charlotte area. This one has by far the worst customer service."
