RoundTripper Sports Academy, founded by Chris Estep, anchors player development in Westfield
Founded in 1993 by former pro Chris Estep, who spent time in the Pirates, Reds and Expos organizations [3], RoundTripper Sports Academy has grown into a year‑round anchor for baseball and softball in Westfield [1][2].The complex pairs extensive indoor space—batting cages, pitching lanes and a full‑field training area—with outdoor fields on the Westfield campus [4][1].Programming ranges from one‑on‑one and small‑group instruction to camps and travel‑team development, all delivered under the longtime banner “Where the Pro’s go to Practice” [2][1].With veteran instructors and deep ties to area families, the academy keeps local players game‑ready from youth levels through advanced training [1][2].
