BEYOND THE DIAMOND
Beyond the Diamond is a nonprofit dedicated to promoting and fostering the development of youth through athletics by providing opportunities for participation in organized sports, skills development, mentorship, and character-building programs. We work directly with underserved athletes for the Franklin Scout Team (formerly known as the Padres Scout Team).

We’re building an initiative that goes far beyond the diamond - one that creates real opportunities and opens doors for future leaders both on and off the field.
