COACHES
Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.
~ Proverbs 3:5-6
Robert Marshall
Head Varsity Coach
The mission and direction of Calvary Chapel Baseball is to strive to honor God through the game of baseball by developing athletes of integrity, discipline, and servant leadership. We want to forge relentless competitors as we train with purpose, play with urgency, and honor Christ in every rep, every inning of every moment. We pursue excellence with discipline, unity, and an unbreakable commitment to glorify God through our preparation, our character, and our performance. We don’t just aim to win games—we aim to build warriors of faith who compete without fear and lead with conviction. Every training session and every contest is approached with the conviction that sports are a platform for worship, growth, and service.
I am committed to teaching fundamental baseball at the highest level and letting each player’s God given ability grow in the game of baseball. The Calvary Chapel Baseball program is passionate about teaching fundamentals that give your player the best opportunity for athletic excellence. I have learned that true success extends far beyond performance—it flows from a disciplined walk with God. We know we are not perfect, but we strive to be. Our program adheres to mercy, grace, forgiveness, and love.
Competition should be encouraged! As the head coach of the Calvary baseball program, I highly encouraged our athletes to compete fiercely. Competing reflects the character of Jesus and his teachings. Paul said in 1st Corinthians 9:24, “Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize”. My baseball program will train not only to be competitive in baseball but also in everything God puts in front of our athletes, so they have the best opportunity for success in their personal lives.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your path.
~ Proverbs 3:5-6

I lift up my eyes to the mountains, where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of Heaven and Earth. He will not let your foot slip; He who watches over you will not slumber; indeed, He who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord watches over you; the Lord is your shade at your right hand; the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord will keep you from all harm; He will watch over your life; the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.

This verse reminds me that God has a purpose and plan for each athlete, on the field and in life.
