Hitting League PLUS!!

SIGN UP HERE!!!

Hitting League : Players will receive 20 minutes of batting instruction prior to game time.  Following they're instruction teams will compete in a 5 inning hitting competition.  Points are been allotted for each out come off the bat, totals will be tallied, and the team with the highest score wins the game. Prizes for various achievements will be provided.  This year our top instructors will be working the league to ensure both excellent instruction, and great environment for competition.

INSTRUCTORS:

Starter: Joe Dempsey:Joe has been an instructor for MBA since 2008, and has coached several of our Blizzard Elite teams.  In 2009 Joe became the Academy’s Facility Manager.  He is charismatic and enthusiastic, and brings an energy that will keep the league fun and exciting each week.

Bullpen: In the event Joe is unavailable. MBA will go to its “Bullpen” w/ two great relievers available and more than able to maintain the pace.

Reliever:Lonnie Robinson: Is a fresh face to the program.  A recent graduate of St.Thomas, Lonnie pitched for the Saint Paul Saints this summer, and coaches our Blizzard Elite 14 U team.

Reliever:John Anderson: John needs little introduction.  He is one of the owners of MBA, and 10+ veteran of professional baseball.  If you can’t have a good time with John at the helm you might want to check your pulse!

NOW, you might be thinking that all this sounds great, but what’s with the PLUS!???

The “PLUS!”: Immediately following the game, both teams will run through an hour session of baseball specific explosive weight training with a professional trainer!  This is what gives this program its edge, and gives the player a complete day of baseball training. The program is called P.A.S.E. and stands for Power--Athleticism--Strength--Explosion, and was developed by Steve Daugherty.

Trainer: Steve Daugherty received his Master's Degree in Exercise Physiology from the College of St. Scholastica, and works for Kohl's Power Cubed Exercise Medicine Center at Children's Hospital in St. Paul.

Hitting League PLUS! is perfect for the individual looking to get himself ready for the upcoming season mechanically, mentally,  emotionally, and physically.  Parents, players, and coaches looking to get the boys together and build TEAM Chemistry, this is the perfect opportunity to build that area that separates good teams from champions. As you know, the spirit of competition has the ability to spark camaraderie amongst individuals, but nothing binds people to one another better than physical adversity.  With Hitting League PLUS! you’ll get both, and really find out what the your made of and have fun doing it!!
