Whether you’re a pitcher, catcher, or coach, this series offers a comprehensive approach to building fundamental techniques and creating a strong team dynamic from both the athlete’s and coach’s perspective.

ATHLETES

This hands-on workshop series gives pitchers and catchers the tools and techniques they need to excel individually while building essential on-field chemistry with their teammates.

Foundations of Pitching

Athletes will work on proper mechanics, grip techniques, and pitch selection. Sessions will cover everything from wind-ups and delivery to refining speed, accuracy, and movement on the ball. Emphasis is placed on consistency, confidence, and developing the mental toughness needed to perform under pressure.

Foundations of Catching

Catchers will focus on improving their receiving skills, framing pitches, blocking, and throwing to bases. Workshops will include drills that enhance reaction time, communication, and the ability to guide pitchers through various game situations.

COACHES

This series will provide coaches with valuable tools to teach and develop their pitchers and catchers effectively. Coaches will gain insights into:

Teaching the Foundations of Pitching

Learn the key fundamentals of pitching, including proper body alignment, arm path, and release points. Coaches will also explore how to identify and correct common mistakes in young pitchers and help them build a sustainable pitching form that reduces injury risk.

Catchers' Role in Game Strategy

Understanding the catcher’s influence on both the pitcher and the game is crucial. Coaches will learn how to help catchers read batters, call pitches, manage pitchers' emotions, and communicate effectively during critical moments.

Building Strong Coach-Athlete Relationships

Coaches will discover strategies to build trust, boost confidence, and encourage growth in young pitchers and catchers. Emphasis is placed on positive reinforcement, constructive feedback, and creating a supportive learning environment.

Drills & Progressions

Coaches will learn a variety of drills and progressions for both pitchers and catchers that will allow them to structure effective practice sessions, focusing on both individual skills and team dynamics.

This series creates a balanced, collaborative learning environment where both athletes and coaches come away with practical, actionable tools to elevate their performance. By focusing on the foundations from both perspectives, we ensure that the players develop a strong technical base, and coaches are equipped with the knowledge to guide them every step of the way.
