New Policies at Silver Sluggers Middleton Facility
Our foremost goal is to keep everyone as safe as possible during this unique time in our communities, while still giving our players the opportunity to train at our Middleton Facility. Silver Sluggers Academy is still conducting individual lessons and small group training under our new policies due to the Coronavirus. Please see below for the extensive precautions we are taking at our facility and during our training sessions to keep our players, families and staff as safe as possible.
We are asking that everyone make their own decisions on attending any training sessions. Please contact brad@silversluggers.com with any questions regarding our policy or to reschedule training sessions (with no penalty) at a future date.
Our facilities are also taking additional precautions and cleaning initiatives effective immediately. We are cleaning and disinfecting regularly, staggering our training sessions as much as possible to allow for additional cleaning time during our training days.
To take extra precaution, we are implementing new rules at our practices and clinics:
- Limit of 8 people (players and coaches) at our Silver Sluggers (Middleton) Facility.
- All players must wash hands (or use hand sanitizer) at the beginning of each practice, and during any break that we have in practice, and on their way out of the facility.
- Players and coaches adhere to the 6 feet away and other social distancing recommendations per the CDC.
- Parents and any non-players are restricted from the inside of our Middleton Facility. Please drop off and pick up your kids from outside the door.
- Training Policy: Our purpose is to minimize or eliminate multiple players touching the same baseball/softball during training sessions.
- Bucket of balls will be disinfected at the end of each training session.
- No shaking hands, fist bumps, or any unnecessary contact at practices.
- Use a courtesy bow, nod, or a friendly hello/goodbye/thank you from a safe 6 feet away to communicate with teammates and coaches.
- These processes and procedures may change on a daily basis as we learn more about this virus and other precautions necessary at a training facility such as ours.
Our commitment to the health and safety of all of our families is our first priority, and we will be making decisions about our Academy activities on a daily basis as more information comes in.
Thank you,
Silver Sluggers Academy

Taking Players to the Next Level
Without a high work ethic, success is very difficult to achieve. Our philosophy is to teach players to be accountable and earn their success on and off the field. We will motivate each player to practice more consistently. We will mentor each player to gain more knowledge of fundamentals and take the correct mental approach to the game.
We take a 360° approach to learning the game of baseball. Players with a consistently high work ethic, an intense focus on preparation, and a true desire to gain knowledge about the fundamentals of baseball will give themselves the best chance for success. With these effort-based standards players possess more self-confidence, trust their skills, and are prepared to overcome pressure and adversity in competition.
We know that every player will not make it to the major leagues. We strive to teach our players what it takes for success not just on the field, but off the field as well.
“The principals that I learned along the way in my baseball career have helped in every aspect of my life. Knowledge, work ethic, preparation, and the confidence derived from being more prepared than the competition are the common denominators for success in every successful athlete. I try to instill these principals in every player that I coach.”
