Rancho Mirage High School Baseball

Mission Statement

The Rancho Mirage Baseball Program's mission is to implement a program that fosters long-term development of character, discipline, sportsmanship, community, and work ethic. With these goals in mind, we hope to create better athletes, but more importantly, better young men and students in the process. Given the opportunity, the players will grow both mentally and physically, allowing each player to find success on and off the field.

About the Program

RMHS Baseball will be starting its 12th overall season as a program, and will be carrying a Varsity, Junior Varsity, and a Freshman team. Last year the Rattlers finished in the CIFSS Div 6 Semi-Finals (For the 2nd Straight Year).  24-8 overall and 10-5 in the Desert Empire League. This season they will be very experienced team with multiple returners, however this group is still very young and hungry for its next challenge.

Over the last year, our program has made significant improvements across all levels and facilities thanks to our fundraising efforts all season long. We are also host to two of the largest HS baseball tournaments in Southern California, in the "Desert Challenge" in December every year, and our very own tournament, the "Desert Cities" tournament we run in January.
