Pitching from the Stretch 
By Dan Gazaway, Owner & Founder of The Pitching Academy
Proper pitching mechanics are key to your success! Before a pitcher begins transferring his weight toward home plate, he has to establish a solid starting point or foundation (Balance and Posture).

 Thank Goodness for Rec Sports
By Brian Gotta, President of CoachDeck
My 13 year-old daughter plays soccer for a highly-ranked competitive team. She loves it. It is probably her favorite thing to do in the world. She and my 15 year-old son referee rec games on weekends as a part-time job. Last Saturday, I went to pick up my son from the game he was doing. I got there a little early and watched the last ten minutes. The girls were the same age as my daughter - 13U. The first thing that struck me was how different this game was from the ones I've grown accustomed to watching over the past several years. These girls were not tremendously skilled. They did not run particularly hard after loose balls and they were not very aggressive. There was little passing or development of plays; it was more kicking the ball downfield, back and forth. And after watching for a few minutes I remember thinking, "Thank goodness for rec sports." Read Article

by Dean Herbert
In an effort to motivate athletes, parents and coaches often think that a comparison will be a carrot that will help youth achieve great performances.

Unfortunately the majority of the population of any age is not motivated in this way. Read Article
