The Summer Pitcher Development Program (ages 13 – 17 year olds) is specifically designed for younger athletes who are playing travel baseball during the summer months (the program can be adjusted for those NOT playing summer ball and are interested in a more extensive program).
As player development takes more center stage in the world of youth baseball, this summer we are offering a program for middle school and high school athletes to remain at the top of their game.
*** Notes:
-
- If you’re new to RPP and training in the “16 and older” program referred to below, you will need a complete assessment which is an incremental charge.
- Program begins week of Monday, June 2nd and ends Friday, August 22nd. You can begin in June or July and the program cost and sessions will be pro-rated.

- Testimonials
“I have been following Nunzio Signore and RPP Baseball for quite some time. Their knowledge in player development and their training programs are at the cutting edge of where the sport currently resides, whether we’re talking about high school, college or pro ball. They are one of a handful of facilities in the country that have the know-how, systems and wherewithal to take you to the next level.”
– Drew Dickinson (University of Virginia Pitching Coach)
“RPP continually develops some of the best up-and-coming talent in high school baseball. Their programming is always at the leading edge of what’s going on in player development, and their results speak for themselves. Few facilities come close to their standing in the industry.”
– Corey Muscara (Wake Forest University Pitching Coach)
