About us

LEARN MOREABOUT THE ACES

Welcome to the home of the Adirondack Aces—a 13U travel team dedicated to nurturing young baseball talent in the South Glens Falls area. We are affiliated with South Glens Falls Youth Baseball, a program committed to keeping kids actively involved in the sport right here in SGF as they prepare for modified baseball and beyond.

At Adirondack Aces, our philosophy is simple: Attitude, Concentration, Effort, and Sportsmanship. We believe that when our players embrace these core values, they not only learn the fundamentals of baseball in a solid and sustainable way, but they also develop the character and drive that will set them up for success on and off the field.

Our goal is to provide a positive, engaging, and educational environment where every player feels supported in reaching their full potential. We recognize that baseball is more than just a game—it’s a community, a stepping stone, and a lifelong lesson in teamwork. Whether you’re a seasoned player or just starting your journey, the Adirondack Aces are here to inspire growth, discipline, and a love for the game.

Join us as we build not only better baseball players but also outstanding individuals ready to take on the challenges of tomorrow.
