Play Hard, Have Fun, and Love your teammates!
I have been fortunate to coach baseball for the last 20+ years and I consider myself a life-long learner. The more knowledge I gain about the game only makes me realize how much more there is for me to know. I have been around, studied, and learned from some of the greatest coaches in the country in order to better myself as a coach. What is so great about the baseball coaching community is the overall willingness to share ideas in hopes of growing the game as much as possible. There is no ONE WAY to do anything in this game, only shared ideas and suggestions that have proven to work at the highest levels. We have an awesome responsibility and opportunity to influence the lives of so many young people on and off the field. This website is dedicated to passing along ideas, skills, and suggestions in all areas of the game in hopes of helping coaches and players at all levels. Please feel free to contact me to discuss any information on this site or ask any questions you may have. I would love to learn from you as well. Thanks.
