The Scarborough Stingers Baseball Club offers an comprehensive program of Rep baseball inclusive of quality instruction for young players in Scarborough.

We develop competitive baseball players through solid fundamental instruction as well as attention to individual and team skills. Baseball is a competitive sport, but we also understand that it is a kids game at heart. We want our players to embrace the competitiveness of AAA / AA / A baseball while having fun with their teammates and new friends.

“As long as I have fun playing, the stats will take care of themselves.” Ken Griffey Jr.
