Minnesota Blizzard Baseball

Why the top Minnesota baseball prospects are choosing the Minnesota Blizzard in 2022-2023

Our teams.
The Minnesota Blizzard is the most competitive and elite training-based baseball program in state, with a strong tradition of producing the top players  in Minnesota.

Our coaches and instructors.
Our coaches who have started with the program have stayed with the program, 20 of which have been here for at least five years and another five having been here for 10+ years.

Our development.
Data and result-driven training programs has been a staple of the Blizzard Academy (Vadnais Heights & Edina) since 2003.  Our well-informed trainers use up-to-date technology including Rapsodo, K-Vests, Blast Motion, and super slow-motion cameras for our individual and high-level training sessions.

Our college and pro contacts.
Our vast network of college and pro scouts has led to over 450 college commits (including over 135 D1 players) and over 60 draft picks and free agent signings since our first graduating class in 2008.

Our showcases.
The Blizzard players and teams draw a lot of scouts.  We have run showcases since 2005 and will continue to do so this year including exposure to the Area Code games and stat and video-based events.

The competition we play.
The Blizzard travels to top-tier tournaments throughout the U.S., providing players the opportunity to play against some of the highest-level competition in the country including Perfect Games World Championships, PBR Championships, Midwest Premier League, Prospect Select’s World and a week-long spring training trip to IMG – the top high school program in the United States.

Our culture.
Relationships are everything.  Our players, families, coaches, and alumni involvement are what drive our program.  The Blizzard is more than baseball – it’s a life experience with coaches who care and players who want to get better.
