Why Coastal Riptide?

We know you have choices when it comes to youth baseball, and we've built Coastal Riptide to be different. Our goal is to provide a comprehensive and unparalleled experience that develops your athlete on and off the field. Here’s what sets us apart:

Unmatched Facilities and Training

We are one of the few organizations in the region to own and operate our own facilities. This means our players get a premium training experience that others can't match. Every practice, regardless of the weather, includes both hitting and fielding, ensuring a well-rounded development for every athlete.

Our facilities allow us to offer each team around 60 hours of training in the winter alone. We also have the flexibility to schedule practices and lessons indoors when spring weather is unpredictable, so you never have to worry about canceled sessions.

Elite-Level Coaching

Our coaching staff is dedicated to athlete development, focusing on proper fundamentals, injury prevention, and building a strong foundation in all areas of the game. Our team of skilled and experienced instructors includes Owner Chuck Chadbourne who provides personalized lessons tailored to each player's needs.

We are also incredibly proud to offer hitting lessons with Lee May, Jr., a former professional player with a career spanning 31 years as a player, scout, and coach. As a hitting coach for professional organizations like the Cleveland Indians, Seattle Mariners, and Boston Red Sox, Lee has worked with current MLB stars like Rafael Devers, Bobby Dalbec, and Jaren Duran. His expertise provides our athletes with a unique, professional-level perspective that's hard to find anywhere else.

Cutting-Edge Technology and Innovation

We use HitTrax technology in practices and lessons to provide instant, data-driven feedback on hitting performance. This advanced system allows our players to see their progress in real-time and even helps us offer remote lessons for athletes who can't make it to the facility.

Beyond hitting, we are constantly innovating to meet the needs of our players. Our new Athlete Lab is designed to increase overall athleticism, speed, agility, and body control, giving our players a competitive edge and helping them grow individually.

A Commitment to Off-Field Development

We believe that the lessons learned in baseball extend far beyond the diamond. Our Riptide Recruiting program provides comprehensive support for our 15+ athletes navigating the college recruiting process. We go beyond simple information, offering opportunities for mock interviews, social media reviews, and small group sessions on topics like school selection and resume building.

Additionally, we are developing an internal mentorship program that will help players apply the valuable life lessons from baseball—like resilience and perseverance—to succeed in the real world. This program helps them develop the skills to thrive long after their playing days are over.

Programs for Every Player

We offer a variety of camps and clinics throughout the year to help players of all ages and skill levels improve their game. Our popular summer camps are known for their low player-to-coach ratios, providing a balance of skill development and competitive fun.

We are always tailoring our clinics to meet the needs of our players, ensuring we are at the forefront of player development. Our continuous evaluation of trends helps us match these needs with the interests of our kids, ensuring they get the most out of their time with us.
