East Kansas City Baseball Academy

OUR WAY

OUR PROGRAM
PITCHING DEVELOPMENT ALL PLAYERS RECEIVE GAME PITCHING REPS TO SPREAD THE WORKLOAD FOR SAFETY AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF ALL STUDENTS

FIELDING DEVELOPMENT ALL PLAYERS PLAY BOTH INFIELD AND OUTFIELD TO FULLY UNDERSTAND THE GAME OF BASEBALL AND TO PREPARE THEM FOR HIGH SCHOOL & COLLEGE ROSTER NEEDS

CONFIDENCE DEVELOPMENT FOCUS ON WHAT PLAYERS DO WELL & ALLOW SPACE FOR PLAYERS TO COACH THEMSELVES AND EARN TRUST AND CONFIDENCE IN THEMSELVES RATHER THAN FROM COACHES

OTHER PROGRAMS
OVER PITCHING FOCUS ON TOP 1-4 PITCHERS WHO START EVERY GAME - PUTTING WINNING OVER SAFETY AND DEVELOPMENT

STARTERS ONLY PLAYERS MASTER ONE POSITION ONLY WHICH PROHIBITS THEM FROM GAINING EXPERIENCE AT POSITIONS THEY WILL PLAY IN HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE

OVER COACHING COACHING MECHANICS MID-GAME WHICH MAY CONFUSE PLAYERS INSTEAD OF RESERVING THOSE ADJUSTMENTS FOR PRACTICE - BENCHING PLAYERS WHEN THEY MAKE ERRORS RATHER THAN GIVING THEM OPPORTUNITIES TO REDEEM THEMSELVES
