ALEX BOWLES
PLAYED BASEBALL
- I played baseball in high school as a 4 year starter for my high school team in Georgia. I had 2 offers for Division 2 baseball, but opted to play Division 1 golf instead. I have coached youth baseball for 14 seasons - 10 seasons in rec as a head coach, 2 seasons as the VBA Bombers 6U head coach, and 2 seasons as the Coastal Premier Futures 8U head coach.
COACHING PHILOSOPHY
My philosophy with youth baseball is to ensure the kids understand that the most important thing at this age is to have FUN while learning the game through correct fundamentals, mechanics, and advanced drills. Teaching positive attitudes and great sportsmanship through all situations. Making sure kids learn multiple positions and growing their baseball IQ. By teaching these things in a fun positive way, and not focusing on the wins at a young age, helps these kids be setup for success as they grow older.
FAVORITE TEAM

Being at game 6 of the 1995 World Series when the Braves won!
