About Custom Performance CT
Our Mission

Our baseball training facility and batting school are designed to meet kids where they are and help them grow through expert instruction, personalized training plans, and a positive learning environment. Whether a player is picking up a bat for the first time or preparing for competitive travel ball, our coaches focus on proper mechanics, strong fundamentals, and repeatable habits that build long-term success.
Every session at Custom Performance CT is about development — physically, mentally, and technically. Kids learn new skills, sharpen their baseball IQ, and strengthen their bodies through specialized drills, hitting technique, fielding work, and performance training. We emphasize improvement at every level: better swings, quicker reactions, stronger throws, smarter decisions, and more confidence on and off the field. Located right here in Connecticut, Custom Performance CT is where young athletes discover their potential, push their limits, and become the baseball players they’ve always wanted to be.
