Youth Baseball Lessons in Evans GA — Building the Foundation Early
MGBA-approved coaches offer youth baseball lessons in Evans, GA for players ages 8 through 12. Coaches work from local fields in Columbia County — Grovetown, Martinez, Harlem, and Evans — so families are not driving to a facility across town.
Sessions are structured by age: 30 minutes for 8–10 year olds, 45 minutes for 11–12 year olds. Every coach is background-checked and vetted by Academy Director Kenny Flermoen before accepting bookings.
Parents book online at mindgamebaseball.com, browse coaches filtered by Evans, and select an available time slot. Payment is upfront — the session is confirmed before you arrive.

What Columbia County Young Players Work On
Young players in Evans and Columbia County work on throwing mechanics, fielding footwork, basic hitting, and baseball IQ — the fundamentals that Greenbrier, Evans, and Lakeside high school coaches evaluate years later at tryouts.
MGBA coaches emphasize coachability and work ethic alongside mechanics. Players learn to receive feedback, apply it in the next rep, and show up prepared — habits that separate roster players from cut players in competitive GHSA programs.
Character development is part of every session, aligned with MGBA's philosophy on the About page: respect, accountability, and a growth mindset that transfers beyond the diamond.
- Throwing mechanics and arm care for young arms
- Infield and outfield footwork
- Hitting fundamentals and plate approach
- Baseball IQ and situational awareness

From MELL Baseball to Greenbrier HS — The Development Path
MELL Baseball runs Columbia County recreational baseball for youth players across Evans, Grovetown, Martinez, and Harlem. Rec ball builds love for the game — MGBA lessons build the skills that carry into middle school and high school.
Greenbrier High School is a seven-time GHSA state baseball champion. That is the standard in Columbia County. Players who develop fundamentals at 10U and 12U create habits that show up at Greenbrier, Evans HS, and Lakeside HS tryouts in ninth grade.
The path is clear: rec ball for team experience, MGBA lessons for individual development, Saturday camps for position-specific work, and the 2027 community league for competitive fall baseball with your city on the jersey.
