What Baseball Skills Development Academy does
Mission
Baseball Skills Development Academy, Inc provides baseball facilities and instruction and offers other baseball-related services for youth ages 13-18. The mix of these services consists of aproximately 25% training, 25% organizing, 25% coaching, 10% sponsorships, 5% scheduling and 10% administration of amateur athletic union and American Association Baseball Congress baseball teams, organization and tournaments. By utilizing the talents of local area coaches and athletes, BSDA is able to provide a high level of competition and instruction to all participants at a lower cost. BSDA is designed to bring coachable and passionate players with a certain level of skill together with a professional, knowledgeable and positive baseball, academic and conditioning staff. The emphasis is on each participant realizing their baseball potential in a relaxed, teaching and fun environment. BSDA applies all funds to baseball programs. Partial scholarships are provided to players who cannot afford tuitio
As stated on its FY2023 Form 990-EZ.
Program
Many individuals benefit from the use of fields, training, participation on baseball teams in tournaments. In order to generate funds to provide fields and baseball-related services, the organization charges tuition. Players can either payr tuition, find sponsors or raise money through fund-raising activities. BSDA will use any excess tuition for scholarships or to improve the quality of its programs.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $43k to $295 (−99%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
100% of BASEBALL SKILLS DEVELOPMENT ACADEMY’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (39% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base held at 1 funder, grant income fell $150 → $72.
1 of 2 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 67% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

How concentrated its funding is
BASEBALL SKILLS DEVELOPMENT ACADEMY leans on a few funders — its largest provides 67% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
67% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund BASEBALL SKILLS DEVELOPMENT ACADEMY.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2020 100% · 2021 100% · 2022 100% · 2023 100% — broadly stable.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
Where its funders are
67% of BASEBALL SKILLS DEVELOPMENT ACADEMY's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $150 that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from North Carolina funders.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $305 arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
