Client Reviews

"In our lifetime, we meet those rare individuals whose dedication to teach the game of baseball to America’s youth is unparalleled. Discipline skills, work ethic and the desire to win - “The American Way”!!! Vince Diaco (Coach D) is one of these men - with him, the player’s total being comes first always!!!"

“My son had an amazing experience at Baseball World Training School summer camp. The instruction he received helped improve his hitting and fielding and he loved all of the extras like the baseball cards, sunflower seeds and visits from MLB players. He had such a great time, we signed up for two weeks and added a third after he attended. He is already looking forward to returning next summer!”

"My son had so much fun doing his favorite thing for hours every day. He had great instruction and became a much stronger player after the experience. Also it was priceless for him to meet and be taught by MLB players."

"My twin sons, Zach and Joel have been to Baseball World Training School camp for the last couple of years. They have loved it. Vince (Coach D) and his team have added fun to their baseball knowledge. It's a great camp for young kids, as well as kids aged 12. -14, regardless of their skill level. My sons had tried other local baseball camps, and nothing touched Baseball World Training School."

"Baseball World has been an amazing place for my two boys for the past 5 years! They are always so excited for Vince’s summer camp! Each year they learn great baseball skills and always make new friends!"
