[edit] Cangelosi Baseball Academy
Cangelosi Baseball Academy is an organization created by the Major League Baseball player John Cangelosi. John wanted to provide the Chicago area and the Midwest with an organization that was all about bettering the players in the game of baseball. Through John's 13 years of Major League experience he has established many connections which he constantly brings into the organization in order to give the player more experience. The Cangelosi Baseball Academy (CBA) is comprised of a full pro coaching staff. Each year the CBA compiles the top 90 player in the Chicago area into the Elite 90 Fall Program. During this Elite 90 Fall season the players practice each Saturday and on Sundays they travel to Colleges throughout Illinois and the surrounding states. The CBA is proud of the fact that many of the Elite 90 players are recruited by College coaches during the season.
The CBA offers players a great opportunity to develop their skills through its camps and clinics. For players with the ability to play at the next level the CBA Showcases are a great platform for a player to gain exposure to colleges and professional scouts. The CBA also offers event speaking for group functions, banquets, organizational meetings, etc. I established CBA in 1999 because I truly love the game. I have 13 years major league experience and played in 7 different organizations at the major league level. While I was with the Florida Marlins we won the World Series. When my playing career was over I coached with the Cubs organization for several years. During my playing career I was an average ability guy with a great heart and a burning desire to get the most out of my ability. The goal of CBA is to bring this knowledge and experience to the players of today. The focus at CBA is to teach the game to all levels through our camps and clinics, and to offer players with ability the exposure they need to reach a wide range of colleges and professional teams through our showcases. The contacts and relationships that I have established through my playing and coaching are endless. The staff of the CBA has a great background in baseball. Instruction is rooted in a fundamental approach to teaching the game and working with players to give them the foundation to grow from. The coaches are quality communicators and instructors stressing not only the ability aspects of the game, but the mental aspects as well, maximum effort, dedication, commitment, hard work, etc. Above all we are totally dedicated to the players that participate in our programs and showcases. -John Cangelosi
