• Hitting- Establish a solid base of fundamentals and mechanics. Increase bat speed, learn how to hit to all fields with power, and establish a mental game plan going to the plate. Learn balance, extension and timing. "Something else that separates good hitters from bad—the plan they have when they come up to the plate." - Papa Jack (Former Boston Red Sox Hitting Coach)

• Slapping- Learn proper mechanics of the soft slap, hard slap and drag bunt. Learn how to read the defense and control ball placement and utilize the field to compliment your speed.
• Pitching- Establish a solid base of mechanics. Learning consistency, velocity and how to control movement. A hitter can catch up to and adjust to speed, not movement. Learn mental preparation and physical endurance.
• Catching- Improve glove and foot quickness. Establish proper mechanics for throws to all bases while increasing arm strength and decreasing pop to pop time. Learn proper mechanics of blocking and how to anticipate pitches in the dirt. Learn the mental side of pitch calling and leadership. Learn fundamentals of framing, force plays at the plate as well as tag plays at the plate.
• Fielding- Learn proper mechanics for specific positions. Infield- fundamentals of fielding a ground ball to each side, body position, quickness and increase arm strength. Outfield- learn proper mechanics of the drop step to both sides, proper body position when catching a fly ball. Learn how to field grounders and catch fly balls in different situations. 
• Strength & Conditioning: Each program is specifically designed to meet the needs and goals of the group/team. Strength & Conditioning programs will focus on establishing core, shoulder and hip complex stabilization and strength. Athletes will learn proper running mechanics, improve foot speed, agility, strength and power. All programs will encorporate a shoulder maintenance program and injury prevention.

**All lessons will be age appropriate. Ages 12 and under will begin to learn proper fundamentals while learning how to play the game. Ages 14 and older will begin to develop strength and learn advanced skills.**
