    Pitching Mechanics and Drills
    [box cover description]
    Steve Smith teaches and demonstrates drills for mastering basic pitching mechanics. He discusses warm-ups (the importance of and the proper amount of time to spend per drill) and key components of the delivery (balance, direction, and timing). He explains and demonstrates a sequence of drills for working on the delivery of a pitch. He concludes with drills for cooling down the arm.


    Coach JP Says:
    Coach JP review Coach Smith hits a bullseye in teaching both youth players and their coaches without getting caught up in terminology or overly technical concepts. Nor does he attempt to overly simplify or talk down to the viewer. He is a valuable & expert teacher with a nice touch in communicating solid ideas on mechanics and drills.

    The drills themselves and their progression is where many coaches and players will get the most benefit. Smith supplies building block chapters. working backward in the pitching sequence from visually displaying the ideal pitcher's body finish and related body position.all the way backward to the pitcher toeing the mound!

    This DVD has great ideas for coaching an entire youth baseball pitching staff, for a dad & son trying to learn this complicated position, or just a ballplayer alone. Anyone can learn from Pitching Mechanics and Drills!

    Note: This series will best suit player development and teaching pitchers age 7-16 PROVIDED players have at least some pitching experience.
