About Seals Hardball Academy
Building Ballplayers, One Rep at a Time.
Founded by Coach John Seals, Seals Hardball Academy was created with one goal in mind: to develop complete baseball and softball players through discipline, fundamentals, and a passion for the game. With over 4 years of coaching experience in youth baseball, I’ve seen how the right instruction can completely transform a player’s confidence, performance, and love for the sport — whether they’re on the diamond or the softball field.
Why I Do This
Baseball has the power to teach lessons that last far beyond the diamond—discipline, teamwork, resilience. I started this academy because I believe in investing in young athletes, not just to help them win games, but to help them grow into better players and better people.
What We Focus On
✔️ One-on-one & small group instruction
✔️ Hitting, fielding, baserunning, and baseball IQ
✔️ Game-ready confidence and mental toughness

Whether your child is new to the game or preparing for the next level, Seals Hardball Academy delivers high-quality, personalized training that meets them where they are—and pushes them forward.
