Hitting Lessons

We work very closely with the hitter to get them in a batting stance that works for them. We teach them to improve their timing and movements to get their barrels to stay in the zone as long as possible.

  • Batting Stance & Balance: Setting up the right foundation to stay balanced throughout the batting swing.

  • Fast Hands and Loading: Working on the heavy and light drills to help develop the batters bat speed through the zone.

  • Exploding the Hips & Lower Half: Ensuring the hips are activated first and working on utilizing the hips to generate power.

  • Point of Contact & Timing: Keeping the eyes and head tracking the ball at all times to ensure solid contact and drive.

  • Spray Hitting: Properly working on inside and outside pitches to properly pull and drive balls to all fields.

  • Hitting Off Speed Pitches: Staying back on the ball, think fastball first and adjusting to the pitch.

Fielding Lessons

We help analyze and study the way the approach and movement so we can teach them the correct mechanics for each individual.

  • Soft Hands: We practice many drills designed to improve the softness of the hands all the way from fielding the baseball to throwing it.

  • Footwork: We work on improving the quickness and timing of the feet to field the ground ball the correct way.

  • Working Through the Baseball: We will also work on the correct timing, in order to field the baseball the right way.

  • Throwing: We will teach the proper techniques from every angle to make quality throws for every position.

  • Hand Eye Coordination: We use drills for hand-eye coordination to help our infielders react especially on ground balls that take bad hops.

  • Fielding IQ: You can’t just sit back on your heels and relax while playing defense. You always have somewhere to be on the field at all times.
