RBI Training Advantage
When rain & wet field conditions prevent us from getting on the field our athletes still get to keep their skills sharp with a quick transition to our indoor space!
We avoid cancelled sessions prioritizing the development of our athletes.
We also offer external bookings! We have had Co-Ed softball, little league, NSSBL Sooners, and Venum softball, utilize our gear & space!

As a small business we have been extremely lucky to develop some awesome relationships with other local small businesses over our four years.
Glen and his team at Fully Promoted Cape Breton have done an outstanding job with our new and improved apparel this year!
Andrew and Rudderham's Source For Sports have also been our go to for new gear and equipment!
Thank you to you both, for having such great customer service, fair pricing, and delivering on our needs!
In the last 6 months we have continued to raise the bar in the purchasing of gear and equipment to continue to offer next level training opportunities and expand on our capabilities.
This has included,
⭐️ 7 DOZEN new baseballs,
⭐️ 2nd L-screen,
⭐️ 2nd Tanner tee,
⭐️ portable pitching mound,
⭐️ and more!
🌟 Including some new tech which we are excited to showcase in the new year! 🌟
We would love to congratulate RBI coach Brett MacMullin for being recognized as a Nova Scotia Senior Baseball League (NSSBL) Allstar! 🎉
Brett was named to the NSSBL Allstar Team as the team’s third basemen. ⚾️
Congratulations, Brett. The RBI team is so proud of your accomplishment and the work it took to get here! You deserve it. 👏
From all of us at RBI, we would like to extend a Happy Thanksgiving weekend from our family, to yours! ⚾️
We are so thankful for each and every RBI athlete that we have had the opportunity to train and help get better at the sport that we all love. 🍂
Reminder, we will be back to our regularly scheduled sessions tomorrow, Monday, October 9. Thank you for your continued support!
First official swings inside the new cage and a sneak peak of what it’s like inside our new facility in partnership with CrossFit 212. More work to be done but we are ready to kick start the 2023-24 program! ⚾️
Our new 65 foot cage and portable mound will allow for live at bats and simulated indoor games!
RBI athletes will have the privilege of having upwards of a hundred live at bats during off season training this year (which could even be more than they get during their regular season!). Allowing them to start the season already locked 🔒 in!
It will also allow our coaching staff to better evaluate how the skills we are instructing are being retained and put into game situations!
Same goes for our pitchers and catchers who will also benefit from getting simulated games and executing in a controlled environment, with a pitching coach 2 feet away the entire time.
We couldn’t be more excited for this groundbreaking season for our program but also what this means for baseball development on the island!
*IMPORTANT REMINDER*
Registration closes in less than 24 hours. Please register before noon on Sunday September 17th.
Even with opening up an additional group we only have 3 spots remaining!
Returning RBI athletes will continue to get priority in registration. ⚾️
