“Loyal to the soil,” as Billy Kehoe likes to say. Two former Scottsdale Community College teammates are giving back to the area kids they once were. Billy Kehoe and Dave Brennan built 46/60 Academy to make that opportunity easier to find.
We want young players to find the opportunities, friendships, and confidence baseball gave us. Seven 30-day online courses teach the AHD approach through short, clear practice, games, and one next step at a time.
Billy and Dave bring their playing and coaching experience to this hometown program.
REAL KIDS. REAL REPS.
This is what 46/60 looks like.
Every photo here comes from our own youth camps, clinics and lessons. No stock photos. The same coaching your player gets online is what we teach on the field.
