Welcome to OGB Elite Baseball — Where the Game Meets God's Purpose
Here, we believe baseball reflects something bigger. Just like in life, the game has its ups and downs, its quiet dugout moments, and its big wins. But through it all, we trust that God uses every pitch and play to shape our hearts.
From perseverance to humility, teamwork to trust, the game teaches us how to live with purpose — and how to walk in faith, both on and off the field.
Step into the box. Let’s grow together.
Yours Truly,
COACH MATT BOLT
COACH LAMAR SHOEMAKE

WE WOULD LOVE YOUR SUPPORT FOR THE BOYS IN PURCHASING A DELICIOUS BBQ PLATE OR MAYBE SOME STEW! COME SEE US FRI, SEPT 1!
Our goals are simple, but powerful:
To make every player better — through hard work, smart practice, and personal progress.
To learn from mistakes — because errors happen, but growth comes when we remember the lesson.
To build confidence — so each player feels prepared on the field and in life.
To teach the game the right way — with respect, hustle, and heart.
To develop strong teammates — who encourage, communicate, and lift each other up.
To instill core values — like discipline, perseverance, accountability, and sportsmanship.
To have fun — because loving the game is what keeps players learning and improving.
We’re here to guide, challenge, and support each player on their journey — not just to become a better ballplayer, but a stronger, more resilient person.
This is where champions are shaped — one lesson, one game, and one swing at a time.
What Baseball Teaches Us About Life
At its heart, baseball is more than bats, gloves, and home runs — it's a training ground for life.
Every game, every inning, and every play teaches lessons that last far beyond the final out. These are the core values that shape who we become — on and off the field:
Perseverance — You don’t win every game. But you show up, work hard, and keep swinging.
Discipline — Success comes from practice, focus, and doing the little things right — even when no one’s watching.
Teamwork — Greatness isn’t a solo act. Baseball teaches us how to trust, support, and grow together.
Resilience — Striking out is part of the game. So is learning from it and stepping back up to the plate.
Integrity — Respecting the game, your teammates, and your opponents builds character that lasts a lifetime.
Patience — Baseball is a game of timing. So is life. The best things often come to those who wait and prepare.
We believe these values don’t stay on the field — they follow us into classrooms, families, workplaces, and communities.
This is why we love the game. This is why we share it.
