ProPitch/The Yard

Off-season Pitching Program

LOCATION:         The Yard

                                Lee’s Summit, MO

START DATE:     TBD

PHASE 1

The focus of Phase 1 is on skill development and creating a foundation for more advance movements in Phase 2. Phase 1 will last approximately 4 to 6 weeks with 2-3 sessions per week.

·         All video analysis, training programs and progress reports will be available on a secure online portal for each participant.

·         Each player will have his/her program reviewed at least weekly and adjustments made if appropriate. Adjustments will only be made after consultation with all parties involved.

Evaluation

·         3D Video Analysis (ZenoLink)

o   Once the athlete's activity is captured, an avatar of the athlete is created in 3-D to develop a performance profile. This profile measures how effectively the player utilizes peak speed output – his/her power potential – at the point of ball release. By measuring hip speed, arm speed, shoulder speed and ball release speed, we create separate analyses of kinetic linking, stability, muscular loading and arm dynamics. These are used to identify functional movement discrepancies that rob the player of power, and predispose him/her  to injuries. This data is used to design a personalized Progressive Skills Training program that corrects the improper functional mechanics.

·         Physical evaluation (Functional Movement Analysis by a physical therapist)

·         Technical evaluation of mechanics of pitching delivery (Dartfish Video Analysis software)

Training/Instruction

·         Individualized Progressive Skills Training program to correct improper functional coordination issues identified in 3D analysis.

·         Individualized instruction on mechanics of pitching delivery.

PHASE 2

Phase 2 is designed to capitalize on the functional movements learned in Phase 1 and increase the speed with which the muscles create those movements.

Evaluation

·         3D Video Analysis

o   Another 3D analysis is done at this stage to check progress and develop the Progressive Skills Training program for Phase 2.

·         Technical evaluation of mechanics of pitching delivery (Dartfish Video Analysis software)

Training/Instruction

·         Individualized Progressive Skills Training program to correct improper functional coordination issues identified in 3D analysis.

·         Individualized instruction on mechanics of pitching delivery.

Payment Considerations

·         $150 deposit to secure spot in program. Balance can be paid in 2 installments. Discount if paid in full up front. FINAL COST TO BE DETERMINED.

·         All players must commit to completing at least Phase 1 of the program.

·         If schedule and pay for Phase 1 and 2 up front, significant discount.
