The Dugout is the BEST baseball facility in New England hands down! The classes are great, its very well run and organized and they take the time to evaluate every athlete that walks in the door, any age. My son has gotten faster, more confident on the mound and is CRUSHING the baseball since coming here!

Energy, Enthusiasm, All treated like equals and family! Belief in what is being provided and no fluff. Refreshing for a baseball realist like myself to be a friend and believer in this facility of Personal Growth and Well Being. I hang my hat there because of my faith in ownership who are not sell outs for the false advertising of creating D 1 only and pro players and the almighty dollar.....

Great atmosphere! They have tons of bats to use if you dont bring your own. Its really convenient if you want to hit some baseballs for 30 minutes to an hour. The owner, Julio is also a great dude who helps people get better at hitting.

I have been bringing my son here for the past couple of years. He first started out with Fall Ball and he really enjoyed it learned so much from coach Julio and all the staff with the Giants. This will be his second year playing on the Giants elite team. He has been complemented by so many people saying what an amazing athlete he is. Julio is also the type of person that if you have anything to say or add to what he is doing or not doing he will take any information you have and try to make things better.

My son has had a very positive experience with the Dugout. It’s clear Coach Julio is committed to creating an environment where players are encouraged to excel both on and off the field. Coaches and players are all very welcoming.

Since starting with the giants I have seen such an improvement in my sons techniques. I have also seen major improvement woth his attitude. The option to be able to attend classes that help him learn and make him a better player is awesome. The coaches are nurturing and understanding and all around great guys. Joining the giants has really been a blessing.

My boys started going the beginning of the month. What an improvement I’ve noticed in their techniques. They both attended camp last week during February break. It was a nice small group so they got some really good training with the coaches. I’m so glad that overheard a few fathers talking about this place and i googled it.

Wow don’t know where to start. It was a blessing to my son (7 year old) and l to find this place. We moved across country not knowing anyone and to today we looked up where the nearest batting cage was and this location popped up. My son and l Decided to walk in and see what they were about. They were so welcoming so family oriented my son and I fell in love with the place. The Coach and his wife welcomed us and even Introduce my son to some of the boys that are in high school that play baseball. The boys took the time to show my son how to hit. My son Instantly felt like home. He had been missing California because of his baseball Family but l think we just found a place we can feel close to home. Thanks again.

Any baseball player that is passionate about the game and is serious about improving their skills owes it to themselves to checkout The Dugout in Lynn, MA. As soon as you enter the facility you can feel the vibe and it becomes clear that this place is unlike most baseball training complexes. Ive witnessed players of all levels, and backgrounds, working out together, motivating each other, and pushing each other to work hard and make improvements. It all starts with the owner, Julio, and his amazing staff. Each instructor shares a deep knowledge of the game and a genuine passion for coaching players. If youre serious about taking your game to the next level then do yourself a favor and get to The Dugout, you will not regret it!

Awesome. Coach Julio, his family & his staff are amazing. From the first time my 10 year old son stepped through the door he was loved it. The atmosphere they have created is phenomenal. It is almost like a family. They teach these players more then baseball. Coach emphasizes the importance of education, character & sportsmanship. Each drill is rigorous & challenging. One of the most impressive things to see is how all the players support & encourage each other. However, more impressive is that Coach Julio knows the name of every one of the players. Whether it is someone he has been working with for years or a player taking their first class, coach takes the time to talk to each one of them individually & offer tips, advice & encouragement. My son has never worked harder at a program yet he loves it & is always anxious to get back to his next workout at the Dugout. This place is the best!

Review №19

To start off my son didnt even want to play baseball this year but we were able to convince him to keep playing. The first game the coach put him in as pitcher, he pitched a few games last year and has done pretty well but definitely needs work. A friend of ours told us about the pitching clinic on Monday nights so we brought him down to work with Julio and now he wants to go back every week and also cant wait to try out the power hitting clinic. While we were there that first time, Julio noticed my daughter sitting with me in her high school softball uniform. He asked who she played for and wanted to see her hit which in turn asked her to play for a team that they are putting together for the summer. She went to one practice with Joni and Chuck and loved it. Coach Chuck ended up staying with her for an extra hour to work on her pitching as well. The amount of time and effort these coaches put into each kid is absolutely amazing, not only do they teach them the proper skills but they teach them the love for the game. Both kids want to keep going back. Well worth the time and the money which is very reasonably priced!

Great place, a real gem. Julio, the owner, is wonderful and you can tell he is very tuned in to the game and mechanics of a swing. He can spot what you need in a few hits. I came in as basically a non-player who picked up batting in a cage as a hobby in my mid-20s, and try it here and there for fun and a workout. I can switch hit but never all that well, really just for fun. Within about 10 minutes of a 30-minute session, and a few key pointers from Coach Julio, I was contacting almost every single ball from both sides of plate, hit a few dingers, totally improved my swing and outlook on the mechanics, and had a ton of fun. Best I have ever hit, by far. Will definitely be going back again.This would be a great place for anyone trying to learn to hit, improve their swing, or just looking for a fun, different sort of workout and a pretty laid-back environment. 30 mins had me sweating bullets and definitely feeling like a much, much better hitter!

The Dugout is what we have been looking for for our son for years. After just a few weeks of one on one training he is more agile, stronger, confident and more prepared for the season than he has ever been. The atmosphere at The Dugout is like a family. It’s nurturing. And it’s serious. Serious about creating athletes.

The Dugout LLC is an amazing facility and program. Coach Julio teaches the children about strength, confidence, endurance and fundamentals/mechanics of baseball. Not only does he encourage the children to try their hardest during baseball,practices and classes but he also instills the importance of education as well. The dugout offers a variety of classes that are available throughout the year. Theres no more waiting for the baseball season to start anymore because at the Dugout baseball is all year! I highly recommend the Dugout for any young eager athlete. The dugout is more than just a facility, its one big baseball family.

The Dugout is by far the best baseball experience I have had with my boys. Very professional. At the same time they make it very fun for the kids. Facility is one of the cleanest and most organized facilities going. I have been to many facilities looking for the right place for my kids but The Dugout tops all them so far. Would recommend this place 100 times out of 100. ️

Great facility. Always puts me in a good mood when working out there. Also the owner Coach Julio is a great coach and person on and off the field. He is very knowledgeable and passionate about the game. I highly recommend working out at the dugout and signing up to play for one of the giants teams. You won’t regret the tremendous experience!

The Dugout is a great facility. My 11 year old son has been with the Angel Baseball organization for 5 years and Coach Julio is now family! His knowledge and love of baseball, his kindness and patience is evident in every class at The Dugout. All of the coaches are encouraging, dedicated and knowledgeable and make sure that the kids are learning as well as having fun! I’ve seen such an improvement in my son’s skills since he has been going to classes here. It’s not like a practice facility that you go to, use the cages and leave. You become part of The Dugout family. My son and I have met so many great kids, parents and coaches. I highly recommend The Dugout!

I have two sons with memberships at the dugout. They are 10 and 7 years old and the dugout is the best thing I couldve done for their baseball development. The owners are very friendly and make you and your children feel welcome from the moment you walk through their doors. There are many clinics and private classes available for all ages. No matter what experience or skill level your child is at there is a home for them here. Come down to the dugout and you will not be disappointed!!!

I brought my 8 year old grandson who was losing confidence in his swing for a one hour private lesson with Julio who was very attentive to his needs, and also very patient with him. I was very impressed with Julios professional manner, but I also found him to be very kind. My grandson was very happy with his experience and wants to go back for another lesson. I hope to get him back this summer for a few more lessons to build more confidence as he improves his swing.Happy to have found this place!

Coach Julio is a great coach and his assistant as well!! His name is Coach Jeam. He helped me with my swing very much, he was clear on which my technique was missing, and also gave me some advice on stretching that has helped me warm up.Highly recommended for anyone who wants to see some improvement on their baseball game all around!!

Review №37

They dont just teach kids to throw catch and hit a ball here. Julio, his wife and their team set the example that every coach should aspire to setting. Hard work, effort and personal responsibility make you the best you can be. I love that I drop my kids off for softball skills and theyre tired when they are finished, but still want to go back!! That alone speaks volumes. I highly recommend The Dugout LLC!! +++100

Review №39

So I took my slumping 12 year-old to The Dugout today, hoping to rent a tunnel, pitch a few balls to him and see if we can figure out what is causing the hole in his swing. Instead, I was met by Julio, who greeted us enthusiastically, took the time to learn my sons name and ask him what was up. With no prior appointment, I asked if he had time to give my son a lesson. Julio dropped everything and spent 30 productive minutes with him. He gave my son some very helpful swing thoughts that he has already incorporated into his team practice. You can tell that Julio knows the game, loves the game and loves what he does. If your son loves baseball and wants to improve, I would highly recommend you introduce him to Julio.

The Dugout is the perfect spot for all your baseball training wants/needs. Very few places have the perfect atmosphere like this place does where you can work hard to improve your game and have fun at the same time. Julio treats you like family from the second you walk in and really makes me look forward to coming back every week.

The owner, Coach J is an amazing coach and caring person. He is very involved with the progress the kids make. He is dedicated and willing to go the extra mile to help the players. He encourages the kids to push themselves further to ensure they are learning new skills. He is very motivating and encouraging to the players. The kids leave here gaining more skills each and every class. He enstills the idea of being a team and encouraging others into these players. So glad we are apart of The Dugout llc.

Julio is not just a coach but a role model to every child that walks through his doors. You don’t appreciate the family bond that baseball has to offer until you been through a program that teaches you what it truly means. THIS IS THAT PROGRAM. On your first visit you will see that it’s not about your talent but hard work.

Review №58

Where to start?!?!? So, I had heard about this place from a friend. I was a little weary because I have had some negative experiences in the past with baseball clinics and lessons for my son (which is 11 yrs old). This place is phenomenal !! Staff is very knowledgeable of the game and what it takes to become a great player !! The trainers (and office staff) are all nice and respectable to all the kids as well as the parents. However, (my favorite part) these instructors are there to teach and will be Stearn with the kids when needed. These kids are there to have fun which they do, but they will also be expected to put in the work they need to become successful!! I can go on and on about this place but I would rather you come see for yourself!! Come check it out, and see the results for yourself!!

Review №71

I had heard about the dugout many times by several friends that were familiar with the program but waited too long to actually check it out for myself. i am so glad i finally did! ever since the first time my 9 year old son stepped into the dugout i have had nothing but an amazing experience with every aspect of this program. from the amazing, educated, friendly coaches, always influencing techinque, dedication, hard work, and determination— to all the older boys greeting my son with friendly dispositions and always willing to help or make suggestions, this is absolutely the best most positive learning experience my son has ever been apart of. i myself learn so much just watching and absorbing everything this ball club has to offer! in all other programs and city ball that we have participated in there has not been the ability for my son to learn, to be taught proper technique and form and the foundations, or to really be even given the attention and time/ chance to be taught the right fundamentals in order to be a great ball player. dont get me wrong as much as julio & co. are all buisness everyone is always smiling and having fun! shaking hands highfiving and most importantly everyone is treating eachother with respect and sportsmanship. more than just learning baseball, julio and the dugout are teaching my son so many important life lessons every class, every practice, every game. i am so thankful to be a part of this club!
