Teaching Principles

Condition Players Physically

•  Strength, speed and quickness.

Players are tested twice a year - January & June. There are 4 different drills that are used to test players. Players are then instructed to use the different drills learned to improve their weaknesses.

 

Train Players Mentally

(Players must know different skill techniques relating to movements and positioning)

•  This is done through practices, games, tournaments, handouts and lecture. Players are expected to execute proper techniques regarding:

Infield/outfield play for fielding groundball & fly balls

Catching and throwing.

Pitching using a fastball and change-up.

Hitting 1, 2, 3 method.

Bunting - sacrifice, drag, push squeeze and slap bunt.

Base running - sliding, primary, secondary tagging up.

Catchers - throwing, blocking, calling a game, bunts, blocking the plate

 

Mental Emotional Training

•  Help players understand that baseball is a game of failure and you cannot let yourself get caught up in the emotions of the game.

 

Our philosophy -
we do not play the opponent or the score,

WE PLAY THE GAME!
