Erick Klein's approach to coaching young athletes will vary depending on age but it will be fundamentally charged in repetition with footwork, body posture, glove work, bat work, and throwing. (Age will determine how escalated lessons get)
INCLUDES:
- Three lessons (weekends only)
{} Lesson One (1hr): First half - Footwork, body posture, fundamental glove work (Infield work) Second Half - transition to ground balls
{} Lesson Two(1hr): First half - Fundy's (glove work & body positioning (Kids will understand fundy's are something they do before every practice and game) Second half - ground balls transition with throwing
{} Lesson Three(2hrs): First half - Fundy's, ground balls. Second half - develop swing
(I'm sure I'll end up going over the estimated 1hr time of lesson)
