Position players will receive intense instruction on proper swing mechanics, the mental approach to hitting, baserunning and bunting. Session I will also feature position specific instruction including infield and outfield.

At Session II, pitchers will receive instruction on proper mechanics and delivery, fielding their position, controlling the running game and the mental aspect of pitching. Catchers will be instructed on hitting, blocking, receiving, footwork, pitching sequence and how to manage a pitching staff.
