About
The New Orleans Youth Academy's mission is to provide inner-city youth with free, year-round, top quality baseball and softball instruction, education assistance and career path development. Here at the New Orleans Youth Academy we strive to fulfill that mission as we provide life skills and baseball instruction to more than 5,500 inner-city youth. Academics and athletics go hand in hand, and it is our primary goal to make sure the right balance is met.
The academy is nestled in the Pontchartrain Park neighborhood in the Gentilly area of New Orleans. The stadium includes a 200-square-foot climate-controlled press box, and the baseball field features professional-sized artificial turf with a clay pitcher's mound and two fenced bullpens. The facility also includes an artificial turf softball field, a three-lane outdoor batting practice cage and a two-lane indoor batting practice building.
