Tim Driscoll coaches pitchers from age ten by appointment rather than through the booking list — message him through the contact form to arrange a session.
Video analysis of the player's swing, lower-half activation drills, and bat path and connection work.
Video analysis of mechanics, Jaeger band warm-up, throwing progressions, bullpens and pitch grips.
Receiving, blocking and throwdowns, plus arm-strength work built to reduce injury risk.
“They take the time to give personalized instruction, break down fundamentals in a way kids can really understand, and create an environment that is positive, motivating, and focused on development.”

No — individual cages are always staffed by an instructor. The whole facility can be rented, though: teams, groups and private events book the building case by case. Get in touch and ask for Tim Driscoll.
Missed class sessions aren't refunded or rolled over, so let us know as early as you can if plans change.
No. Most families start with a single lesson or a drop-in session to see whether it's a good fit, then buy a pack once they've settled on a coach. Single lessons and drop-ins are listed on the camps and clinics page.
From age five through high school, depending on the coach. Kari takes softball players from five; Gehrig and Matt McDonald work with any age; Matt Holliday coaches hitters from eight, and Darold Ellison and Tim Driscoll from ten. No experience is needed to start.
Yes — Kari and Darold both offer buddy sessions for two players in one hour, which works out cheaper per player and suits a kid who'd rather not be alone in the cage.
Just themselves, comfortable clothing, their bat or bats, and a great attitude.
Tell us the player's age and what they want to work on, and we'll match them with the right instructor before you buy anything.
