Our Mission

Our mission at Albuquerque Sticks Baseball is to mold young men into being great contributors to the world. Playing baseball is a privilege as well as a kid's game. Our intention is to keep the game fun and exciting through hard work and discipline. Training the mind and body physically; and soul spiritually is the foundation of Family Ties Baseball. Family shows love to one another in all circumstances as we play the game for each other and our savior Jesus Christ.
