OnBaseU Advisor + Certified Hitting & Pitching Coach

by Kevin

OnBaseU Houston pitching hitting Advisor

Honored to be a member of the OnBaseU Advisory Board. Houston hitting and pitching certification was a success. As an OnBase University Advisor and OnBaseU Certified for hitting and pitching we are a leader in the latest techniques used for player development. We have the ability to identify technical faults and connect those with a player’s physical limitations. That ability is what separates an OnBaseU certified member from the rest of the coaching world.

If a student is struggling to perform, a coach’s job is to quickly identify and correct the problem. As an OnBaseU Certified Coach we have a deep understanding of how the body’s strengths and weaknesses affect our player’s ability to perform at any level. We can quickly identify any physical restrictions that may be limiting a player and implement simple techniques to improve these limitations. Having the ability to connect a player’s physical abilities to their technical skills gives us a complete understanding of why a player does what they do.

We are proud to be part of OnBase University as it is an organization dedicated to studying how the body moves in the sports of Baseball and Softball and how to assess an athlete’s physical ability to perform these movement patterns. When looking for a Pitching and Hitting coach, this is key.

Please contact us to get started with your coaching sessions and any questions you may have.

Holidays Are Here… Next Velocity Training 2016

by Kevin

Happy Holidays To You & Your Family!

Happy Holidays

The holidays are here, 2016 is around the corner. All baseball players know that the key to performance and longevity is the proper care of the throwing arm.

As a parent you know the importance of keeping your son’s throwing arm healthy while increasing velocity — and the best way to do that is a Velocity Program. The exact one that was on HBO Real Sports and I’m the only one in the North Houston area that has been certified by founders Tom House and Joe Newton to teach this velocity training.

The Off-Season strength portion of the Velocity Plus Program is 9-12 weeks long! 90% of participants gained at LEAST 3 mph in the Program.

2014 Velocity Plus Results!

UPDATE JAN 2016:
Tom House has announced that I will be Regional Director for the National Pitching Association and I will be working with the newest Protocols from the NPA Velocity Program. Contact Us to schedule your Velocity Training.

There are a lot people claiming to know the program, be very cautious. It’s not the same! Each program is designed specific for each person. There’s an in-season and off-season workout. The protocols are very specific.

Have a great Holiday Season and a Happy New Year!
