good luck ladies ans gentlemen!! go have a heck of a season!
I promise you that Vanderbilt University isn't going to ask what your kid's batting average was the year he won the Burger King Championship.
Sometimes we lose sight of the big picture because we want our kids to be great today.
I'm telling you right now, your kid has time.
Don't put them in a microwave. Keep them in the oven.
I didn't start my Senior year in high school, I got cut in college, and I played in the Big Leagues.
I'm not saying everyone is going to play at that level but you can't tell me your kid can't get an education out of this game.
After 30+ years as a player, mental coach, and current scout, I'm convinced more than ever that baseball is so mental it's mind-blowing.
There's a reason why baseball is the biggest self-esteem-destroying sport in the world.
Parents, we have to help young players develop a mental game.
It starts with having what I call an "Opening Day Mindset."
What's every player's favorite day of the year?
Opening Day! Why?
Because there's no "yesterday" or "past bad at-bat" beating us up today.
It's a clean slate.
That's the mentality every player has to bring to the game, each day.
This will create more calmness, toughness, and focus with less tension, pressure, and anxiety.
Now they have the ability to compete with 100% confidence.
If you'd like for me to be your personal mental hitting coach, I would love to have you be a member of Quality At-Bats Academy.

Compete with Confidence!
