If you clicked the "here" button, you're either looking for information about what I teach, or a little more on my playing experience/credibility. Which is fair.
​
Coaching Techniques:
I focus on fundamentals and movement efficiency for each player, as well as address their understanding of what they are trying to do and their mental approach to the game.
​
Players who work with me will spend time on the drills that they need in order to self-adjust their movement patterns. Basically, I let them figure out the best way for them to move in order to be successful, rather than telling them what to try to do.
​
Once they become successful at each drill, we progress and increase the difficulty. I don't believe in creating a false sense of security for hitters, pitchers or catchers, the goal is to approach the points of failure in a controlled environment and then address the necessary solutions.
​
I believe training techniques should improve on-field performance, which is why even as a trainer I believe coaching teams remains a vital part of staying connected to the players. This will be my 14th year coaching.
