Ramey: When we started, we had a lot of young kids. So that's how Line Drive Academy started in September 2016. I was lucky enough to know the guy who owns the building we're in and he let me rent space to give the lessons, and that turned into a couple other people giving lessons, and eventually I just did the math and decided I was better off running it myself and renting the whole space per month. But one of those jobs was giving lessons. We had to work two jobs in college, while also playing college baseball, so that was very challenging. Ramey: Me and Jared both grew up in this area and went to Truett McConnell University here in Cleveland (Georgia). Q: How did Line Drive Academy get its start? We covered a range of topics, including LDA's founding four years ago, how they use Axe Bat Speed Trainers in their player development program, and the impact Driveline Baseball has made on their careers. The former college teammates train all ages, from youth players to pro athletes, while also running five travel baseball teams, out of their facility located about 90 minutes northeast of Atlanta. Today, in our series highlighting Team Axe partners, we talk with McClane Ramey and Jared Oliver of Line Drive Academy in Cleveland, Georgia.
