The Sports Farm positions itself as Lakewood Ranch’s one‑stop shop for baseball performance
Tucked off International Place, The Sports Farm has become a regular stop for Lakewood Ranch’s baseball kids chasing better velocity, bat speed, and durability. The facility operates at 7359 International Place, Unit 201, with on‑site batting and pitching cages and Rapsodo tracking to capture spin, flight, and exit velo [4][1].The baseball arm is led by former pro pitcher Ryan Reid, who co‑founded the operation with Daniel McSwain and Matthew Reid; director of sports performance Travis Koon heads the strength side alongside nutrition and rehab support [4][2]. Programming leans into individualized, sport‑specific plans, with movement and skill assessments recorded and shared via OnForm, plus strength, sprint, and rotational work built for diamond sports [1].Families can book drop‑ins or tiered packages through the gym’s scheduling platform, and free performance evaluations are offered to help map out plans [3][1]. By mid‑2024, the group was working with roughly 45 athletes across its programs as it sharpened its “one‑stop shop” model for area players [2].Camps are part of the calendar, too: the operation promotes a Black Friday camp and a Summer Baseball Performance Camp series. Four weeks are listed for summer 2026 — June 8–12, June 22–26, July 13–17, and August 3–7 — giving families multiple entry points around the travel‑ball grind [6][5].
