Philosophy of The Mark Cresse School of Baseball

The Mark Cresse School of Baseball was created in 1984 by Mark Cresse, coach for the Los Angeles Dodgers, and Jeff Pressman, high school baseball coach, experienced baseball camp executive, and creator of our unique 8 week baseball camp format. The Mark Cresse School of Baseball was founded on the theory that young, impressionable youth baseball players needed a constructive summer activity and a chance to be taught the game's fundamentals by experienced, qualified coaches.

The Mark Cresse School of Baseball is an intensive fundamental training program. We are not a team oriented, competitive (winning!) environment. We teach fundamentals in a fun, disciplined, non-competitive atmosphere. After attending our program, young baseball players are better suited to re-renter the competitive environment of youth high school baseball.
