From the first print to the first slide, every SLIDEMVP mat is made with care by a family that loves this sport.

Thanks for putting it to work. 🤍

Most players are never taught how to slide, they just try it in a game. A mat gives them a safe place to learn the steps and repeat them until they stick.

A few focused reps a week add up faster than one long session. 💪

The base coach has the best view of the play. Listen early for go, stop, or slide.

Train both halves of that play: listen for the signal early, then focus on the bag. ⚾

Want to teach your players how to slide? Here’s exactly how I do it at my clinics.

First, we teach the four steps.

This is the most important part of the entire session. Before a player ever touches the mat, the coach needs to teach them the four steps.

1. Butt down
2. Figure four (toes up)
3. Hands up
4. Lean back

We go over these steps together until everyone understands what they’re supposed to do.

Now we start the progression.

20 reps: Players start standing and simply drop into their slide. No running. No walking. Just getting comfortable with the movement.

8 reps: Walk to the mat and drop into their slide.

8 reps: Jog to the mat and drop into their slide.

Now we sprint! And this is where I let the kids go as many times as they want.

Think about that.

Before a player ever takes their first sprint, they’ve already practiced their slide 36 times!

That’s 36 opportunities to correct their form, build good habits, and get comfortable with something that might have scared them 20 minutes earlier.

By the time they’re sprinting, I don’t want them thinking about the four steps anymore.

I want them just doing it.

That’s what all those repetitions are for.

And as a coach, your job throughout the progression is to watch, correct, encourage, and make sure they’re ready before moving to the next step.

It’s really that simple.

Teach the steps. Follow the progression. Get the reps in.

And watch what happens when your players start believing they can slide.

Every player wants to hit better, throw harder, and make the big plays. But how much time are you putting into your baserunning and defense?

Sliding into bases. Diving back. Sliding stops. Diving catches.

These are skills you need to practice, not just figure out during a game.

That’s why we built SLIDEMVP. A way to get more reps, build confidence, and make baserunning and defense strengths in your game.

If you want to get better, you have to put in the work.

🇺🇸 Manufactured in the USA.

The real test of a slide is the game. Coaches tell us the reps pay off in close plays, with runners safe because they got under the tag and extra bases taken because the slide was already automatic.

Sliding well is a trained skill, and practice is where it gets perfected. ⚾

People make really points with their comments so I want to champion their opinions. I kind of like this series.

When the mat bunches up during a slide, a foot is usually grabbing the surface instead of flexing. Point the toes and keep the ankle relaxed as the legs come through.

It is a quick fix once a player knows what to look for. 👟
