Rodney’s Philosophy
Teaching the mental and physical part of the game are crucial. When we focus on Hitting players must have the right approach and plate awareness, Fielding and having a proper balance of footwork angles to the ball and mentally knowing where to make the play with the ball in certain game situations. Students learn the importance of physical conditioning, stretching and having good core. “Move your feet, catch the ball & throw the ball.”
