About Whitecaps Baseball Academy
Our Mission
THE MISSION IS TO SET A STANDARD HIGHER THAN MOST. CREATE A CULTURE THAT STRIVES TO MEET THAT STANDARD AND DOESNT ACCEPT ANYHTHING LESS. CREATE CONFIDENCE THROUGH EFFORT DRIVEN ACTIONS NOT RESULT BASED OUTCOMES. THROUGH THIS WE WILL CREATE KIDS OF CHARACTER OUTSIDE OF SPORT
PHYLOSOPHY
AT 9 YEARS OLD I HAD A COACH, RAY TORREY, THAT MADE PRACTICE SHIRTS WITH THE SLOGAN "PREPARE ONLY TO WIN EVERY PLAY." WHILE THE EMPHASIS IS PRIMARILY FOCUSED ON WINNING, THAT PHILOSOPHY GOES BEYOND THE FINAL SCORE. THE PROCESS OF WINNING AND DEFINING SUCCESS AS AN ACTION, NOT AN OUTCOME. IT’S THROUGH THOSE ACTIONS THAT YOU CONTROL YOUR FUTURE AND WE SEE SOMETHING MORE IMPORTANT THAN WINNING. A WINNING MINDSET IS NOT JUST A “REFUSE TO LOSE” MONTRA. IT’S A STRATEGY TO BUILD CONFIDENCE. WHEN WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU DO MATTER MORE THAN THE RESULTS, WE WILL COMPETE WITH ANYONE. AND REMEMBER YOUR PG SCORE AT 12 DOESN’T MEAN YOU WILL BE A GOOD FATHER AT 40. BUILD QUALITY HUMANS NOT AWESOME TROPHY SHELVES
DEFINITION OF A WHITECAP
The definition of a “Whitecap” is a person that holds good values of character and sportsmanship. They put the team first, believe in a strong work ethic, and compete at all times (through the good and bad). They are dedicated to creating a culture of accountability and a detailed oriented process. The one thing that unites us is our love for baseball.
