High level select baseball can be difficult to navigate for parents and players.

Seemingly everywhere you look, there are coaches and organizations making big promises. Increasingly, here in the Cincinnati area those organizations are national operations setting up a franchise. Now, even longtime local programs are “going national.”

But what are these organizations actually providing players? In some cases, the sales pitch doesn’t match reality. Player fees are going up and player growth is stagnating or the player is not improving as fast as possible. More and more teams are being added to organizations and that is reducing practice time.

That’s why a group of veteran Cincinnati-area baseball coaches decided to launch the PF Flyers Baseball Club.
