Meet Ryan – Our Founder’s Journey
As someone who’s faced personal struggles, setbacks, and breakthroughs, Ryan knows the value of persistence and purpose. His love for baseball and belief in second chances led him to create this program — not just for kids who’ve made mistakes, but for any youth ready to grow.
“This isn’t just about baseball. It’s about believing in yourself, learning from the tough moments, and becoming someone you’re proud of.”
The 2nd Chances Story
2nd Chances of Hope was built on the belief that real growth happens when we're challenged, encouraged, and supported by mentors who genuinely care. It's about believing in people — often before they believe in themselves.
Founded by Coach Turner, the program carries a simple mission: to help kids grow stronger — not just as athletes, but as individuals. Every rep, every drill, every ounce of focus, every bit of hustle, and even every mistake is an opportunity for mentorship and growth. We’re building confident, disciplined, and prepared young leaders.
Because we know everyone deserves a second chance — and sometimes a third.
We're honored to share this mission with you.
Let's build hope, together.
1% Better, Every Day
We believe in steady growth — one step, one rep, one session, one decision at a time. Whether it’s through weekly lessons or private coaching, we use sports as a tool to teach deeper life skills:
-
How to own your choices
-
How to lead under pressure
-
How to rise after failure
-
How to play with purpose
Every kid who enters our programs learns that success isn't about being the best — it's about falling in love with the process, not the outcome. It's about becoming better than you were yesterday.
Our Core Values:
-
Discipline — We train with purpose, focus, and hustle.
-
Accountability — We own our choices and our growth.
-
Resilience — We get back up. Every time.
-
Growth — We show up, learn, and improve — on and off the field.
