Welcome to the A. Green Summer Baseball Program Web Site!! This site has been developed to allow baseball fans everywhere to track one of Southeastern Michigan's, and the country's, most successful summer baseball programs. Check back often as we continue to add more to the site each day. Please sign our guestbook at the bottom of this page and tell us what you think.
The A. Green Summer Baseball Program was started in 1996. The goal of the program was, and still is, to provide an organization that teaches good sportsmanship and works to improve the fundamentals of players seeking to compete at a higher level. The A. Green Summer Baseball Program recruits players primarily from throughout Southeastern Michigan, the Midwest and Ontario. However, we may also go anywhere else throughout the country in an effort to find talented players, who also possess the additional qualities off the field that we look for in A. Green Summer Baseball players. Currently positions are extended by invitation only, most often generated by the recommendation of a high school coach, collegiate coach or professional scout. In addition to this, prospective players must maintain not only proper conduct on and off the field, but also a grade point average that is acceptable for collegiate enrollment.
Currently, the A. Green Summer Baseball Program is one of the largest and most respected in the country and continues to grow each year, playing its home games at Oestrike Stadium on the campus of Eastern Michigan University, at Fisher Stadium on the campus of the University of Michigan and also at Burbridge Stadium on the campus of Spring Arbor University.
At the conclusion of the 2011 season, 88% of the past players received varying levels of scholarship money to attend the college or university of their choice. Overall, slightly more than 98% of the players participating in the program, and who have completed their high school requirements, have gone onto continue their education. Our current alumni list totals 265 players from 107 different high schools, and who have gone onto play at 79 different universities or colleges while 5 went immediately into the professional ranks.
In addition, the program remains very competitive on the field with a current overall record of 533-146-8 for a winning percentage of .785%. This goes along with the 20 League Titles, 1 National Championship, 19 Tournament and District Championships, 3 World Series appearances and 30 players drafted into Professional Baseball, including 1 young man who played in Europe. This is truly a success story on and off of the field of play! While many programs over the years have attempted to duplicate the A. Green way, none have been able to match the prolonged success, long standing tradition and the respect that has been earned.
The A. Green Summer Baseball Program are registered members of the American Baseball Coaches Association and maintain current affiliations in several programs; including All-Pro Sports USA, AABC, USSSA, NABF, AAU, CABA, ABA, DeMarini/Wilson Top 96, Perfect Game USA, World Wood Bat Association (WWBA), Gameday Prospects, Pastime Championships, Team One, Area Code Games, Aflac, East Coast Professional Showcase, Ripken Baseball, Triple Play Baseball, Elite Baseball and Triple Crown Baseball.
In addition, the A. Green Summer Baseball Program has developed partnerships with several national companies in an effort to maintain agreements on shoe use, uniform wear, glove and bat use along with many more items for our players and staff. Look for further information on these issues throughout the coming fall and winter seasons.
