Cutternation Baseball School gives student-athletes a connected five-day training plan in San Diego. Coaches organize baseball skill, strength, speed, stability, arm care, recovery and baseball IQ around each athlete’s age, readiness and goals. Families can choose half-day training from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. or full-day training from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. with protected classroom time and an optional Laurel Springs academic pathway. Applying does not guarantee admission.

CUTTERNATION HIGH SCHOOL PREP TEAM
Built for serious 12U, 13U, and 14U athletes preparing for high school baseball. Players train together through purposeful team practices, position-specific development, strength, speed, throwing preparation, arm care, recovery, baseball IQ, and tournament competition.
Every athlete begins with an evaluation so Cutternation can establish the right development priorities, practice expectations, role, and pathway. The program emphasizes accountability, healthy routines, confidence, communication, and learning how to compete as part of a team.
This first phase is a 12U–14U development and tournament-team pathway. It is not a CIF team. CIF eligibility, where applicable, is determined separately by the athlete’s school and applicable CIF rules.
Laurel Springs remains an optional academic pathway for families seeking a flexible online-school schedule. Laurel Springs works directly with families on enrollment, curriculum, course placement, and academic support; Cutternation manages athletic development and team preparation. Admission and team placement are not guaranteed.
Train 9–2, Monday–Friday—even if you stay enrolled at your current school. Choose a training-only half day or a full day that adds protected classroom time. Led by Cutternation founder Jon Sintes and expert coaches, this San Diego baseball training program connects pitching, hitting, strength, speed, stability, arm care, recovery and baseball IQ into one individualized development plan. Every application is reviewed for fit and available capacity.
MORE TRAINING. MORE ATTENTION. A SMARTER SCHOOL DAY.
Traditional school and team schedules can leave serious players rushed, tired, and piecing together lessons, lifting, recovery, and homework. Parents see a busy athlete, but not always a connected development plan. Cutternation Baseball School brings those pieces into one purposeful day with more coaching attention and a more efficient path through school.
