About the company

This is my 4th year of doing pitching lessons here in Le Mars & it's been such a blessing to be a part of the growth of young baseball players in the greater Siouxland area. I work with everyone from beginning pitchers to high school level pitchers and try to meet everyone at their current level of progress, just to just keep getting better. And while my main focus is pitching, I work with catchers as well and many times will have my son Michael (He's a H.S. catcher at Le Mars Community) helping out with those lessons. The following is a little bit more about my background and philosophy: I attended Fairfield High School in California, earning all MEL Second Team my Senior Year. I then attended Solano Junior College (California) for two years as a pitcher where I set the career appearance record, won the Augie Garrido award for most outstanding Sophomore, and was Second Team All-League (Bay Valley Conference). Played two years on scholarship at San Francisco State University splitting time between setup and closer for the second ranked pitching staff in the CCAA. I then graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology before returning to Solano Junior College in 2009 & 2010 as the pitching coach & head recruiting coordinator. While there I helped lead them to back-to-back Bay Valley Conference championships. As a youth coach, I put a focus on implementing a positive mental approach for players at younger ages, as well as breaking down the advanced biomechanics of pitching, into drills which can be managed and understood by beginners up through more advanced players. /// PAYMENT STRUCTURE: **Single Pitching Lessons - $70 / hr (please try and schedule 1 week in advance to ensure I can reserve the rental space); **Group Pitching Lessons - Groups of 4-5: $200 / Groups of 6-7: $250 (Please schedule 2 weeks in advance) - MUST CONTACT ME DIRECTLY TO SCHEDULE GROUP LESSONS; Payments can be made via Cash, Check, or Venmo @EDP31 /// PLEASE NOTE: My normal job can sometimes have hours that are a bit volatile & may cause me to have to make abrupt cancellations to our lessons.
