Baseball With Koa Sports
Before Koa Sports was Koa Sports, it was Tony Korson (future CEO) coaching a group of neighborhood boys. It was a love for the game that drove Tony to start Koa Sports. While the non-profit has grown a hundred-fold since then, that passion is still present on each and every Koa baseball diamond.
Whether you're the parent of a first-timer or an elite high school or college player, Koa has the perfect baseball environment for your child to thrive. With our full-time administrative support and experienced & passionate baseball coaches (dozens), we're sure your experience with us will be a blast and your child will truly develop into a dedicated and great player. See below for our list of programs:

Our high school program focuses on training and helping athletes become varsity impact players and prepare for showcases. Our 22u college teams will play in the MCBL, the Maryland College Baseball League. This local league (around the beltway & Baltimore area) features weekday evening games (typically a 5:45 pm start time), which allows our athletes to work, and play doubleheaders on the weekend.

Who is Koa Baseball?
We’re your neighborhood ballplayers. We’re a nation of seed-spitting, dugout-cheering, hard-working baseball-crazies who are out for two things: Getting better and having fun.
Koa was built on the idea that baseball is important in the lives of young boys. From the skills, it develops to the lessons it teaches to the relationships formed along the way. Come join us and experience the Koa-difference for yourself.
Our baseball program is at it all year long, with games from spring through fall.
