Catcher's Program

Instruct Players to be a Better Catcher On/Off the Field

The best catchers are leaders on every team they compete on. This clinic is going to give every level catcher the tools to be the best they can be at catching.

Catchers must be:

  • A wall
  • Soft hands receiver
  • Smooth thrower

Catchers will always affect how the game is played.  Even the amount of time it takes for the catcher to give the ball back to the pitcher affects the game’s pace.  Following this clinic, your child will come out with a better understanding of how important they are and will leave with the tools to be the best.
