Sports Academy goes Hollywood in new baseball film

(HINSDALE, Mass.) -The Dan Duquette Sports Academy will be featured in a new Hollywood film entitled "Holy Land Hardball" that is set to be released.

"Holy Land Hardball" is a documentary about bringing baseball to the land of Israel and the Sports Academy is the United States training spot for the Israel Baseball League.

Dan Duquette was named the IBL Director of Baseball Operations and offered to hold tryouts at the Sports Academy for players hoping to make it.

Larry Baras, a Boston bagel man, attempted to create a six-team professional baseball league from scratch and the entire process of forming the IBL was taped by a video crew and formatted into the movie.

Brett Rapkin and Erik Kesten co-produced and directed "Holy Land Hardball" and Matthew Hiltzik is the executive producer for a film that is receiving great reviews.
