Travel Prep Academy
Our Story
We believe baseball is the most beautiful game, and we know it isn’t an easy one. There is a lot to learn — from basic fundamentals to complex nuances — and an already steep learning curve becomes even steeper when making the transition from in-house baseball to travel. Smithtown Bulls Travel Prep Academy was founded in 2022 to help burgeoning baseball players develop the skills they need to make that transition.
Our Mission
The Bulls Travel Prep Academy is a year-long clinic setting offered to 6u and 7u players that play (or will play) in St. James-Smithtown Little League. Travel Prep focuses not only on hitting and fielding skills, but begins to teach players an understanding of pitching to live batters off a mound, developing an approach at the plate, and amassing a baseball IQ that will broaden their overall understanding of the sport.
How It Works
We believe in progress, not perfection. However, this is a program for the committed player. Accordingly, our staff expects each player to be self-driven and show a dedication to working hard and having fun. While they may be young, these players are also incredibly capable and learn at a lightning-fast pace. We believe in the kids in the program, and trust and respect them enough to treat them like athletes, all while letting them enjoy themselves and the game.
In playing ball, and in life, a person occasionally gets the opportunity to do something great. When that time comes, only two things matter: being prepared to seize the moment and having the courage to take your best swing
