BASEBALL COACHES: Pitching Documents
I have taken a few documents + my own to create a pitch tracking system. This tracks in game stats: strike %, FPS %, % of each pitch including every count & more. If you have interest RT this & I will reach out on how to access this. Preview⬇️
Kid got out and threw for the first time in a while today. With basketball and cold weather in CO, great to throw long here in AZ. Crazy what a little time off and some quality time in the weight room can do! Ball was jumping out of his hand!

What does "Respect the Game" mean?
It means..
• You show up on time
• You wear your uniform the right way
• You RUN on/off field
• You play w/ enthusiasm & passion
• You shake your opponents hand, & then try & kick his ass on the field
• You compete
Every coach wants great team culture. They just do.
It wins more, creates a better experience, and is more enjoyable than any of the alternatives.
But a team’s culture will never be any better than the culture of the coaching staff.
Staff culture first —> Team culture follows.

Today was one of those practices where every player was dog tired after. Just spent. All defensive reps. We offered them time after our allotted practice window to hit, every single one stayed an hour late to get swings. Loved seeing the drive, but this also the bonding.
Players: Enjoy your HS playing days. There’s nothing like playing in front of a crowd of your community members, friends & family & playing alongside classmates. The sense of community & school pride is unbeatable. Relish it; rejoice in it; respect it. It’s over before you know.
