Winter Development Program Leaderboards 📊

Our Middle School and High School athletes kicked off the Winter 2026–27 Development Program with their initial performance testing!

Using our VALD ForceDecks, we measure key athletic performance metrics including jump height, peak power, reactive strength, and explosiveness to establish a baseline for each athlete.

Swipe through to see the Top 10 performers across each testing category for both age groups!

These numbers give us a starting point as we work to develop stronger, faster, and more explosive athletes throughout the winter.

We’re looking forward to seeing how these leaderboards change by the end of the program!

6’4 2027 RHP Rowen Gonsiewski from Soquel High has made some big jumps from summer through our fall program. He’s added +5mph on his fastball jumping from 85mph to 90mph in a few months.

✅ Added strength in the weight room ⬆️
✅ Force Plate metrics ⬆️
✅ Sequence timing & Mechanics ⬆️
✅ Velocity ⬆️

Nice work Rowen. We’re excited to keep getting after it this winter.

📈 FALL DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM RESULTS ARE IN!

After 11 weeks of hard work, our Fall Development Program has officially wrapped up, and the numbers speak for themselves!

Throughout the program, our Middle School and High School athletes worked to improve their hitting, pitching, and overall athletic performance. Using data from our initial and final testing, we were able to track their progress and measure improvements across the board.

From increased exit velocity and bat speed to throwing harder, jumping higher, and producing more power, our athletes put in the work and saw the results.

📊 Swipe through to see the average gains across our Fall Development Program!

These numbers represent program-wide averages, not just our top performers.

Proud of the work this group put in over the last 11 weeks. Time to keep building! 💪

The Performance side of our Baseball Development Program includes force plate testing during the first and final weeks of training. While we track multiple metrics across several exercises, we place a big emphasis on Countermovement Jump (CMJ) Peak Power because of its strong correlation with throwing velocity and exit velocity.

Seeing improvements in power indicates increased potential for what athletes can express on the field.

While we saw many impressive results this fall, two athletes really stood out for their significant overall improvements:

Colton Burdette:

* CMJ: +799 W Peak Power | +4.2 cm Jump Height
* SJ: +801 W Peak Power | +4.3 cm Jump Height
* Plyo Push-Up: +229 N Peak Takeoff Force
* Bodyweight: +6.3 lbs

Zach Sutton:

* CMJ: +751 W Peak Power | +5.5 cm Jump Height
* SJ: +416 W Peak Power | +6.4 cm Jump Height
* Broad Jump: +8.5 inches
* Bodyweight: +11.8 lbs

Other Noteworthy Improvements:

Jack Herceg: +7.8 lbs Bodyweight | +721 W CMJ Peak Power | +825 W SJ Peak Power

Merrick DaCosta: +6.5 cm CMJ Height | +7.9 cm SJ Height

Kruize Godsy: +14.4 lbs Bodyweight

Great work from all our athletes this fall! We’re excited to see how these improvements translate to their performance on the field.

Everyone’s watching the 103 mph fastball. I’m watching the guy catching it. 👀

William Contreras is the reason the Brewers are where they are. He’s winning challenges, shutting down the best running team in the AL, and steering the whole staff from behind the plate.

The part that matters most: three years ago, nobody thought he could catch. Defense is trainable. ⚾️

Pitcher’s view vs. catcher’s view: would you burn a challenge in a 2-0 game? 👇

If you’ve got a catcher, that’s what we build at Paradigm. Link in bio.

That’s a wrap on our Fall Development Program!

Over the last 11 weeks, our have been putting in the work, developing their skills, building strength, and competing alongside one another.

From the cages to the weight room and everywhere in between, it’s been great seeing the effort and consistency our athletes have brought each week.

Proud of the progress made throughout the fall and looking forward to carrying that momentum into our Winter Development Program!

As players prepare to make the jump to high school baseball, developing strong fundamentals in the infield becomes increasingly important.

Coach Colten breaks down 4 key areas every incoming high school infielder should focus on improving:

1. Body Posture and Position: Maintaining an athletic fielding position that allows you to move efficiently and react to the ball.

2. Glove Presentation: Presenting the glove properly to create consistency when receiving ground balls.

3. Timing and Footwork: Learning to move through the baseball with rhythm and get your feet in position to make an efficient play.

4. Gathering and Throwing Position: Bringing the ball to the center of your chest and getting into a compact, controlled throwing position for a quick and accurate release.

At the high school level, the game gets faster and the margin for error gets smaller. Building consistency in these four areas allows infielders to play with greater confidence, efficiency, and control.

The goal is to develop repeatable movements that hold up as the speed of the game increases.

We’re nearing the end of our Fall Development Program, and the work our athletes have been putting in is starting to paying off!

Over the past several weeks, our athletes have been showing up consistently, getting quality reps in the weight room, on the mound, and in the batting cage, and making some big improvements along the way.

It’s been great to see the progress this group has made, not just in their testing numbers, but in their strength, movement quality, and overall development as baseball players.

Are your players actually getting better during catch play, or are they just getting their arms loose?

Playing catch is something baseball players do almost every day, but it’s also one of the easiest parts of practice for young athletes to lose focus and simply go through the motions.

Catch play should be an opportunity to develop throwing mechanics, footwork, accuracy, and consistency. But for that to happen, there needs to be intent behind every throw.

In this video, Joey discusses why catch play deserves more attention and shares a few ways we try to keep our athletes engaged and focused throughout their throwing routines.

As coaches, we can help by giving players specific goals, creating challenges, and making sure they understand what they’re working on rather than simply telling them to go play catch.

The goal is to build habits that carry over into practices and games, where every throw matters.

Don’t overlook one of the simplest opportunities to improve your game.
