The base provides student athletes with year-round, superior baseball and academic training, access to college fairs and showcases, professional visits, and academic scholarships available through partnerships with several colleges and universities throughout the country. The base also trains and supports a growing network of youth baseball coaches, many of whom are alumni of the base and its predecessor ballclub, the boston astros ("astros"). The organization has built a strong set of relationships with government, private sector, community leaders, colleges and universities, other not-for-profits, private foundations, and individuals who are committed to changing minds, lives and the status quo. Effective january 1, 2017, the organization changed its fiscal year end from december 31 to june 30. Prior year information presented represents the six months ended june 30, 2017.

The base and the astros have served over 9,000 boys and girls through its base teams, leagues, tournaments, instruction/conditioning and partners. Several former base and astros student athletes are currently competing at the major league baseball level.
