Knights Baseball Introduction Letter
The fall of 2022 brought one of the biggest changes to the Force Elite Organization as our club teams merged with Knight’s Baseball! Knight’s Baseball is a top notch nationally recognized organization that’s located outside Nashville, TN. A handful of their accomplishments include WWBA World Champions, PG World Series Champions, Mickey Mantle WS Champions, along with multiple players in the professional ranks. It became clear very early, the opportunity to join a distinguished club of this magnitude could not be passed up. For all of our current club families, clients, outside training teams, and past alumni, that has known us only as Force Elite Baseball, that isn’t going away! The Force Elite facility and staff are all staying the same. Only our club teams will now be under the Knight’s Baseball family but powered and run by Force Elite Baseball staff. The opportunities and benefits of this transition will be further detailed below.
The merger has now allowed our club teams into the Marucci Franchise Platinum ranks. Our players will have access to Marucci gear at a discounted price and quick turnaround. As well, Marucci holds a tournament exclusive for Marucci Franchise clubs, which brings together organizations of elite caliber from around the country. Marucci is one of the major youth & professional apparel/equipment brands in the baseball community that our club now has access to on multiple levels!
Another component to the merger, is teaming up with Knight’s Baseball to send our top players to fall showcases just for Knight’s players. This was realized quickly this fall with the invite to attend a scout day hosted and put on by the University of Tennessee baseball staff. Our players were able to workout in front of the Vol’s coaching staff at their state-of-the-art field/complex. This experience was valuable for our players in various ways that are hard to count. Additionally, holding the Knight’s name will only continue to help our organization network into new events to give our players exposure in the college ranks. As a national club, Knight’s Baseball Tennessee has the ability to attend national events that are outside the scope of most clubs nationwide. We look forward to partnering with our Tennessee club to send our top players with their teams to attend these events. Players will have the benefits of a national organization while still staying local with our club and training. Our staff is excited to see how these opportunities play out over time!
Overall, our staff is ecstatic with all the possibilities the merger will bring. With the 2022/23 season being our first year with Knight’s Baseball, we look forward to getting settled in and forming great relationships. We appreciate all the support that our current and former families have shown over the past months. We could and would not have done it if it wasn’t for all of you! Our staff looks forward to our commitment to bringing professional development and coaching to all of our players and our continued effort to always improve the process!
