College & Pro Prep
Get college- and pro-ready — mostly mental, finely tuned, no wasted reps.
These are the years that decide where a player's game can take them. Coach Myles trains 16–18 year-olds for the next level — a college-caliber mental game paired with fine-tuned mechanics — with one aim: getting them as college- and pro-ready as their work will allow.
By this age the big mechanical pieces are in place, so the work turns to fine-tuning — the small, specific adjustments that separate a high-school contributor from a college recruit. Every rep has a purpose, and the standard is the level these players are chasing, not the one they're at.
Above all, this stage is mental. College and pro baseball are won between the ears — preparation, routine, composure under real pressure, and the confidence to compete with anyone. Coach Myles, a former semi-pro, coaches that mindset directly, drawing on what the next level actually demands.

Yes. The 16–18 stage is built around getting players college- and pro-ready — a college-caliber mental game plus fine-tuned mechanics, trained to the standard the next level demands.
