Join our new teams now forming in the south bay!
We are happy to announce Tides Baseball will now be forming teams in the South Bay region.
Our South Bay program will be led by Coach Josh Aguirre who will fill the role of Director of Player/Team operations and will also oversee and lead our coaching staff.
Josh Aguirre has had the privilege of coaching players in the South Bay as well as players from North and East Counties for the past 12 years and has been one of the most successful coaches to produce next-level players.
From the youngest ages to high school student-athletes, Coach Josh has built a reputation second to none when it comes to player development both on the field and in academics. Please call or email for details if you would like your player to participate.

The SoCal Tides had a total of 6 teams competing in the Annual North Country Turkey Tournament in Clairemont on November 24th and 25th! All 6 teams fought hard and represented with pride. The Tides partnered with the National Stars, California Waves, and players who came up from Mexico to join our rosters for the weekend. In the end, our 16U team won the championship in their division!

Great organization and program. My son has only been in the program a little over 6 months and we have seen tremendous growth!

We love the system that Coach Kenji runs with the Tides... In just a short time, my son's confidence has jumped up so much as a result of the coaching approach and the high reps that he gets at practices! We needed that!
And coaching is focused on the mental side of the game just as much as the skill development. Another thing we needed. Tides also have their own indoor practice facility, which is about as good as it gets! Again, high reps with both fielding and hitting, along with fun games on their HitTrax system! Just last night the kids all got at least 150 cuts each in the facility cages - with HitTrax measurements! ..Super fun AND productive all the time.

The SoCal Tide Baseball Academy is an outstanding organization. Coaching is great, facilities are great and the quality of people is equally as great! If you have a player looking to improve dramatically, the SoCal Tides Baseball Academy is the place for them!

I just wanted to take a second to recognize the SoCal Tide organization, the coaches, and the main org leader, Kenji, for their effort and dedication to the players, parents, and game.
Coach Kenji, along with the other coaches provides leadership that holds the players accountable yet provides an environment for them to learn and excel with lots of one-on-one instruction and feedback.
The tides facility and institutional coaching are outstanding, as Kenji has created a strong organizational base for all age divisions to work from. As a parent, communication has been great. Not only daily scheduling for practices and games but communication for player expectations, as well as organizational lessons for all players to study.
I could keep going, but our experience has been fantastic, and we love being a part of this team and organization.
