CLASS DESCRIPTIONS

 

PITCHING CLASSES

 

Advanced Pitch Development and Arm Care - 13U - 14U

A popular class every offseason, this program is designed for participants who have a good basis for mechanical fundamentals on the mound. The focus of this program is to build on already established mechanics through the strengthening of the major muscles associated with throwing a baseball. Coaches will also focus on secondary pitch development. 

 

The primary focus of this program is on pitchers, but arm strength transfers to any position on the field and we can adapt any pitching drills we do for any position a kid plays. Please note, this is not a pitching mechanics class (if you are looking for extensive mechanical work, please ask about private instruction).

• Player level: 13U and above

• Recommended as a 2-class per week program

• Classes available 

  • Mondays 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM  - Coached by Danny Vais & Will Bartos

  • Tuesdays 6:30 PM - 7:30 PM - Coached by Will Bartos

  • Wednesdays  7:00 PM - 8:00 PM - Coached by Danny Vais & Will Bartos

  • Saturdays 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM - Coached by Will Bartos

 

Pitch Development and Arm Care - 9U - 12U

This program is designed for players who have a good grasp on the Elite pitching mechanics and are looking to develop or improve their secondary pitches. The program will focus on teaching the correct mechanics through drills, helping to increase the ability to throw strikes and compete every time they step on the mound. The focus is on throwing fastballs and developing secondary pitches with the correct grip and arm action. 

 

All participants for this class must have played with Elite for at least one season, done at least 5 lessons on pitching, or completed a pitching class in the past. If your player does not meet that criteria they should look at the pitching 101 class.

• Player level: 9U - 12U 

• Recommended as 1-class per week program

• Classes available 

  • Wednesdays 5:00 PM - 6:00 PM 

  • Thursdays 6:30 PM - 7:30 PM

 

Pitching 101

This program is built for kids that are new to pitching, new to playing for Elite or want to refine their mechanics. The program will focus on teaching the correct mechanics through drills, helping to increase the ability to throw strikes and most importantly compete every time they step on the mound.  The focus is on throwing fastballs and being able to build a repeatable delivery.  This class is highly recommended for all 8U players and 9U players new to Elite. 

• Player level: 8U - 10U AAA

• 1-class per week program

• Classes available 

  • Sundays - 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM

 

HITTING SKILLS & BAT SPEED DEVELOPMENT

We have three options for hitting programs, allowing us to tailor each class to fit the skill level of the players enrolled. Please note we will move your player if we don’t feel they are registered for the appropriate class level. 

 

Advanced Hitting - 8U - 11U and 12U - 14U

This program is designed to develop hitting skills and the muscles associated with hitting. The focus is on increasing a player's strength as well as addressing any mechanical inefficiencies in order to improve bat speed and exit velocity. The program will focus on bat speed and exit velocity development, and refining the hitting approach.

This class will provide instruction on the Elite fielding fundamentals in footwork, hands, approach, and position-specific skills. If you are new to Elite, this is your starting point.  

• Class times

  • Monday 5:00 PM - 6:00 PM

 

CATCHING SKILLS PROGRAM

Whether you are an established catcher looking to keep your game sharp or new to the position, this program will help to sharpen your skills behind the plate. This program will combine drill work in the proper setup, receiving, throwing, and blocking with a focus on developing catcher-specific speed/strength/agility. Please note, that catchers must have their own catcher’s gear. 

 

Players will be split into groups based on age and skill level.  We do recommend that players registering for the catching classes plan to attend every week as classes build on themselves each week.
