I would just like to say Thanks to RJ and the entire Hitters organization. We have turned the page to the next chapter in EJs baseball career moving to College and we couldn't have done it without the visibility we have gotten through the Hitters Baseball organization. The experience was fantastic and memories that will never be forgotten. Good Luck and we wish you continued success in your program! Ken & Kris Trapino

My son Nathan attended the Youth Instructional Camp this week.  The past two nights he could not stop talking about how much he learned and how much fun it was.  RJ and the coaches went far beyond a normal camp, taking time to explain the importance of academics, along with effort and hard work. He is one tired but very happy and motivated baseball player!  Thanks to RJ and the Hitters staff for running the best camp I have ever seen!

To Jared/staff and the entire team: Congrats on a great championship game yesterday at U-M for the TOC Pastime Tournament. A great group of kids and a nice staff makes it a pleasure to umpire! Kudos! Jeff Metz (plate umpire/Sunday U-M)

Last summer, our son, Kris Goodman, played for the U18 Hitters Team.  It was a great experience in every facet.  Once we made the decision, RJ quickly found a host family for Kris to live with in Racine WI.  What a blessing - a great family, great food, and friendship!  The team traveled extensively throughout the summer and we were able to attend several of the tournaments.  We watched first-hand how RJ created the team as well as potential connections for the boys for college.  While Kris was already committed to Iowa for school in the fall, he had lots of coaches looking at him.

It was a great experience.  Our only regret was that we didn't know about the Hitters earlier!  Thanks RJ for a great time and great baseball!

My name is Matt Bohlken, and I am the manager of a 14U team (KC Naturals) from Kansas City, Missouri. We ended up in the 2nd round pool with your 14U team this past weekend at the Premier 'Incoming Freshman' tournament in Springfield, MO. Just wanted to congratulate you on your top 4 performance, but more importantly, on the class you showed in achieving that finish! Your coaches and players should be commended- Obviously a great group of young men, and they represented you well. We did not experience that same level of sportsmanship and class with some of the other teams in this event. I was able to see three of your games, and was very impressed with your group. Keep up the great work, and good luck with the rest of your season!

RJ and Ross, We just wanted to take a moment to thank the both of you for all that you do for Brandon. As you know by now, baseball is his passion and what you guys have done to help him is incredible. Brandon really relates to both your styles of instruction and he thinks very highly of you two. We are also impressed by your level of professionalism and knowledge of the game! We especially appreciate the quality of instruction he receives and your commitment to help the kids become better athletes. Before we discovered Hitters, we were looking for this level of instruction and now that we have found it, we will be working with Hitters for a long time to come. Thanks again and good luck on the upcoming season! I have and will continue to spread the good word of Hitters. Respectfully Kevin and Jen Hafemann

RJ, Looking over your web site ,... nice . Super that your have put together a scholarship in honor of your father . I know he is proud . Be well . The Madden's Sw

The Hitters Baseball Program with its philosophy, direction, and leadership is second-to-none in Wisconsin and one of the Midwest�€™s best baseball organizations. The players showcase their abilities against the nation�€™s most-competitive teams and interact with countless college/pro scouts that are familiar with the dedicated Hitters athletes. In addition to building baseball skills, we also saw significant growth in commitment, work ethic, confidence and maturity. These opportunities just did not exist with the other area baseball prospect camps, teams, and programs. Thanks to RJ and Hitters Baseball for helping our son, Ben, achieve his dream of playing D1 baseball!

John, Nathan R.J. and all Coaches-

 

Just want to drop a note to you guys saying thanks for inviting Nate to be on the team.  He had a lot of fun and i think got some good exposure.  Great event.  Couldn't even watch a game because there were scout golf carts everywhere, but clearly that's a good problem....

 

Appreciate all the development opportunities you guys present.  Have loved RJs program, and wouldn't have gotten connected with you guys without him.  Nate's really learned a ton and has tangibly become a better hitter directly because of the coaching and better opportunities your programs present.  Good stuff.

 

Have a great off season, for whatever that means these days.

I figured I would pass this email below on.  I have noticed a significant improvement in Dawson�€™s school work since he has started at hitters.  Today, we got this email from his teacher.  It was a compliment to Dawson and I think it should also be a compliment to your academy and the positive message you guys keep sending to these kids.  Keep up the great work!
