Who we are
The Avon Lake Baseball Club was founded in 2023 by David Justice, an Avon Lake youth travel baseball coach and community member. During his time coaching, David observed firsthand all of the expenses families paid to provide their player(s) with an opportunity to play baseball. He believes that every child should have an opportunity play baseball to the level their talent allows.
