We’ll begin with learning how to throw the baseball, the basic rules of the sport, and where everything is on the diamond.
Once a level of comfort has been reached between us, and on the field, this is when we can get into the nitty gritty of baseball- we will fine tune aspects of the game, begin discussing the mental side of baseball, improve situational awareness and overall baseball IQ, and get into discussions about how to be our best selves on, and off the field.
Here is where we can really get into the bread and butter of baseball- continuing to hone throwing skills, begin positional drills, improve defensive efficiency and develop sound defensive habits/awareness, and begin discussing hitting.
We’ll continue to learn how to properly throw a baseball, while implementing a strategy to care for our bodies. We’ll cover the rules a little further, and then determine what position sounds the most interesting/where might be a good fit.
During our first lesson, I will take the time to understand what positions you currently play, what positions you’d like to play, your overall physical condition, and where your head is at with baseball currently. We will get to know each other through playing catch, and we will run a few position specific drills so that I can get an idea of where you are.
This is, in my mind, when it will be the most fun for us. We will tailor all lesson plans specifically to your game- and revisit whatever we need to.
