Gamers teams will be coached by both volunteer coaches and by professional coaches. We have a careful and thorough coach selection process. We are looking for coaches that are “double-goal” coaches.
A “double-goal” coach has two goals. First, to succeed on the field and on the scoreboard. Young men learn a lot by working hard to achieve success on the scoreboard, by winning, and this is an integral part of being a double goal coach. But, the second goal is more important. The second goal is to use baseball as a platform to teach important life lessons and life skills to young men. To have a positive impact beyond the playing field and beyond the season.
This philosophy is core to the Gamer team culture and mission. For this reason, we require that all coaches and assistant coaches in the Gamer program be certified as a Double-Goal Coach by the Positive Coaching Alliance.
