The Pitching Academy Training Sessions

The Pitching Academy Training Sessions

Our training sessions will be dialed towards improving our command of the baseball. We build pitchers not throwers. Each station is 15 minutes in length with a practice plan in each station. Each athlete will be paired with another athlete near his same age.

Station One: Arm Prep

·         We will prepare our arms for the work at hand today. We use Jaeger Bands and the Jaeger routine to get our arm ready for the day’s action along with simple arm stretches.

Station Two: Catch Play

     The most important part of the day! How we play catch is the start of our journey from having control to having command of the baseball. Each throw has a meaning. Each throw has a target. Each throw has a breath. Players will be taught the proper way to play catch and be given a daily throwing routine which includes long toss.

Station 3: The Mental Game

     Here we work on breathing and having a routine before each pitch. We visualize our game plan. We focus on the present and pitch one pitch at a time. We visualize executing our game plan. We focus on our target and put ourselves in the tunnel.

Station 4: The Pen

      This station has 2 parts. 
  • Dry drills where we work on our mechanics and fine tune our arm patterns both on flat ground and the mound. 
  • Bullpens with a set routine that focuses on fastball command of both sides of the plate out of the stretch and windup
  • Pitch design during bullpens after mastery of the fastball to both sides of the plate working on breaking balls and changeups.
Station 5: The Cooldown

     Post throwing band work and cardio to help in recovery. We encourage players to stay longer if needed to get more mental work in. Stay longer to get extra dry reps in. We are here to train the body, arm, and mind and that takes time, hard work, and plenty of reps.

The Cost

$80/Session     4 Session Minimum $320       Sessions meet once a week
