With playing experience at the high school and college level as well as coaching experience with the Los Angeles Dodgers organization, I look to share my knowledge of the game to help develop ball players. With my degree in psychology, I focus on also teaching the mental framework necessary to be a successful athlete. Currently I am a coach for the CGE 10u team in San Mateo. I am able to work with players at any age. I’m more than happy to work on any aspect of the game (hitting, fielding, catching, pitching).

Beginner training plan
Your first lessonStart by observing the players techniques. Then implement drills to fix the most important issues in their technique. In a swing, these typically are issues with balance, timing, lack of engagement of the lower body, poor bat path. Create practice plan for player to understand what they need to improve on. I will also asses the players mental approach to the game.
Lesson 11+These lessons will be very similar to the previous ones; however, I will emphasize working on the players weaknesses in game scenarios. For example, if a player struggles with hitting against velocity, I will speed up the pitches. If a player struggles to throw strikes in full counts, I will create full count scenarios for the player to practice in. At this point, it is about getting the player to a place where they feel comfortable going into any situation in a game. My goal here is to allow the player to work through there struggles, eventually excelling in them. This is where the mental part of the game becomes so crucial.
Lesson 4-10These lessons will begin with drill work based on the players flaws and then move toward situational hitting. This allows the player to think more about their technique and approach to the game.
Lesson 2-3Continue working on same drills, ironing out the big flaws in the technique. If the player is ready to move on, meaning their previous issues are rarely occurring, start working on the more advanced parts of the swing (maximizing power, working on direction, etc.). If the player is not ready to move on, the lesson will primarily focus on performing initial drills correctly. At this point, I will push players to approach each rep with intent, thinking through what they’re doing, and why they’re doing it.
Youth players
Working with kidsWith kids, establishing the fundamentals is most important. When kids develop the fundamentals, I am able to focus on developing high level mechanics.
Working with teenagersWith teenagers it’s crucial that high level patterns are drilled in. The game speeds up at this level and teens need to be efficient in all of their techniques.
What you need to bringBat and glove if they prefer to use their own, helmets.
What I can bringTee, baseballs, gloves, pocket radar, tripod for camera, bats (normal and weighted), plyo balls, equipment for drills, L - screen and nets.
