About Us
Playball. . . Everything Else is Just Playing Around!

Welcome to Playball Adventure - a franchise owned and operated by Michael and Laura Shatzel. As owners, we are thrilled to be a part of such a wonderful program. We began our franchise in July 2005 when we decided to leave the corporate world for a much more rewarding and flexible business. We believe that Playball is an excellent opportunity for every child and can most definitely make a difference in their lives.
What makes Playball so special?
PLAYBALL is Progressive
Children progress from an informal introduction to ball and motor skills, to more structured sports participation. Our curriculum for the 2-6 year olds focuses on motor development and motor skills. At PLAYBALL, children learn the basics for baseball, basketball, field hockey, soccer, tennis and volleyball.
