Every now and then, baseball becomes about something bigger than baseball.
This summer, there’s an incredible opportunity to use the game we love as a vehicle to serve others.

The Saturday Series™ (TSS™) is heading to Juan Dolio, Dominican Republic from June 18–24 for a baseball-focused mission trip  — and you’re invited to learn more.

What Will They Be Doing?
This week will be a powerful blend of:
  • ⚾️ Running baseball clinics
  • 🤝 Service projects in the community
  • 🧢 Scrimmages with local players
  • ⛪ Worship at a local church
  • ❤️ Opportunities to serve at a women’s shelter and connect with families
  • 🌴 One full free day to experience the beauty of the DR
Mornings will focus on baseball clinics. Afternoons will include service work and time to build relationships. It’s a chance to compete, connect, and carry Christ into another culture through sport.

Leadership You Can Trust
The trip will be led by Kenny Dickerson, who will be making approximately his 46th mission trip to the Dominican Republic. Kenny and his team handle the in-country logistics — we just need to show up ready to serve.

Our friend Jared Kelley is organizing this group locally and will be your main point of contact.

Why This Matters
We talk all the time about building complete athletes — discipline, leadership, character.
This is that… in real life.

It’s easy to say we play for something bigger. It’s another thing entirely to get on a plane and prove it.

If your athlete loves baseball and wants to see how the game can impact lives beyond trophies and showcases, this is worth serious consideration.
