Our Philosophy
In the diamond industry, the most critical characteristics in selecting diamonds are the 4 C’s: Cut, Color, Clarity, and Carat. Considering the traits required to develop a great athlete and a great person on and off of the diamond, Diamond Kids Baseball Academy defines our 4 C’s to impact an athlete’s development as:
Character, Communication, Commitment & Connection
CHARACTER
Defined as the aggregate of features and traits that form the individual nature of a person. Moral or ethical quality. Qualities of honesty, courage, and integrity.
We help our athletes build & develop character by embodying core principles of honesty, integrity, love, respect and kindness. These traits will lead to success on and off of the diamond.
COMMUNICATION
Defined as the exchange of thoughts, opinions, or information by speech, writing, or signs.
We model and foster an environment of open communication by teaching great listening through compassion, empathy, and patience. We create high engagement through active listening and participation to support our athletes development mentally, emotionally, and physically.
COMMITMENT
Defined as an agreement or pledge to do something in the future.
We teach and reinforce the power of commitment. To accomplish our objectives and achieve greatness, we set high standards and expectations by encouraging our athletes to commit to success daily through cultivating outstanding habits. We also emphasize respecting and embracing the process of failure and success through goal-setting, self-reflection, and accountability.
CONNECTION
Defined as a relationship in which a person, thing, or idea is linked or associated with something else.
Through the power of connecting with each athlete by embodying our philosophy and core principles, we instill confidence in our athletes.
Confidence is defined as full trust, belief in the powers, trustworthiness, or reliability of a person or a thing, without being prideful. Belief in oneself, one’s powers or capabilities, and also belief in others. Assurance. Confidence is repeated success based on past performance.
By creating and engaging in meaningful connections, along with producing amazing results, we will increase your athlete’s confidence. Through diligence & elite preparation, character building, edifying communication, and consistency, our training fosters a confident athlete, compassionate person, and committed player.
Building Champions on and off the diamond!
