About us

Our Mission

Teaching and learning the fundamentals of life through better baseball and softball.

The JAA FUNdamentals of life, baseball, and softball...

EXCELLENCE: Anything worth doing is worth doing well.
We will work hard to research, define, teach, and share the best ways to play the game, and will play with attention to those details.

 

DISCIPLINE: Do it the right way, or don't do it.
Whether on your own or with the team, whether in practice, warm-ups or in a game, always work to execute the way you've been taught.

 

TEAMWORK: The whole is greater than the sum of the parts.
Players will learn their individual roles and responsibilities but will learn that together, everyone achieves more.

 

SPORTSMANSHIP: How you act when you play is as important as how you play.
Win with class, lose with dignity. Always hold your head high. Play knowing that it's a game that even the best professional teams win only 60% of the time.

 

FAMILY: Yorktown JAA will do all it can to be a destination of choice for area families to have fun, build character, and make memories.

 

Our Goal: The Bottom Line...
Through proper positive instruction emphasizing FUNdamentals, we want more kids to experience more success and have fun playing baseball and softball... so that they play longer... into the day... and night... and into their lives.
