BILLY BALL PRO INSTRUCTION
The Passion
for Baseball and Teaching
I guess you could say that I
was meant to have a baseball facility in Connecticut to call
my own. I grew up in Manchester, went to East Catholic High
School and have forever called Connecticut my home. My
family recently moved back to my hometown in Manchester
after living in Florida for the past 15 years. Baseball City
was created from a passion for baseball and a desire to have
an indoor training/teaching facility for all ages in the
central Connecticut area. Together, with my partners John
Fote and Mark Bagdasarian, we have constructed a truly
“awesome facility.” Baseball City is a dream come true for
all three of us. We are proud and humble to bring this
state-of-the-art facility to Connecticut for all ages to
enjoy – a place I will always call home.
The Passion
for Competing and Having Fun
If there is one thing I want
my past teammates and current players to remember about me,
the first thing that comes to their minds when they think of
Bill Masse, it’s “that guy competes to win more than anyone
I’ve ever met – and he has fun doing it.” After I finished
my 7 year playing career with the New York Yankees in 1995,
I went back to Wake Forest University to finish my college
degree and figure out what I wanted to do with the rest of
my life. Well, I figured out that teaching baseball,
competing to win and having fun is what I do best – I guess
you could say it’s in my blood. Today, I get to teach and
manage the game I love at the professional level, and I’ve
met some of the greatest players and coaches in the game
throughout my career. Learning from these players and
coaches is the backbone of my teaching – an open mind and a
thirst for more knowledge is the key to success.
Baseball will always be a part
of my life – the teaching, the competing, learning to be a
good teammate and the rewards of being a member of a team
that is striving to be the best it can be. However, the
thing I probably enjoy most is the pure fun of smacking a
ball with a bat and watching it go out of sight! When it
comes right down to it, I’m still just a big kid and fan who
loves to watch the pure beauty of a baseball game.
I can’t wait to help kids
learn and grow in the game of baseball in the area that I
grew up in. So get ready to have some serious fun – I’m
looking forward to meeting you!
