From Youth Sports to the Collegiate level, millions of athletes and parents are navigating the choppy waters of success. At TexBall, we report on developments & news on leagues, instruction, nutrition, equipment & showcases for realizing maximum potentialOff-Season Camps and Clinics
As fall ball wraps up over the next weeks, many kids are ready for some time off, and deservedly so. However, this late fall/early winter period is also a good time to begin planning for off-season workouts, training programs and "head" drills to teach the fine points of the game.
In North Texas, we know of a few programs that continually provide a high quality regimen for helping young baseball players in strength, agility, speed, mechanics and mental conditioning.
These two programs are administered by pros -- people that understand youth sport bodies and conditioning. Common sense runs high, egos are kepy under lock and key, and results are positive for the players and parents.
1. Ray Burris Elite Positions Clinics -- These clinics are typically done Thrus and Fri nights for 2-3 hours. There's also a Sunday set of sessions upcoming in late November. Clinics include Catching, Fielding and Hitting as taught by instructor Shane Davenport. Pitching and Parents' sessions are run by Ray Burris. Players see results quickly here, and they get as much head/attitude adjustment as they do physical training. Many pros come to Ray to fine tune or rebuild mechanics, and athletes of all ages wil find knowledgeable, proactive instruction here. More info at RayBurris.com or call at (817) 589-9055
2. Arlington Baseball Academy BPEP -- The Baseball Player Enhancement Program (BPEP) is designed to improve each player during the off season in preparation for the spring season. Focus is on overall strength, endurance, flexibility, speed and mechanics. The sessions, run by owner JD Magee with Pantego HS Pitching Coach Bobby Hart are a favorite among a growing number of youth select players in Arlington, Texas. Sessions are now being booked and are limited to just 30 players per season. More info, email JD Magee or call him at (817) 792-3532, ext 4.
One additional item, we have found everything we could want in sports nutrition from the folks at FitRx. These guys get it, and have a tremendous stock to choose from. They'll also answer questions quickly and correctly. Get everything from pre-game snacks, to advance protein and creatine mixes. This isn't Balco folks, safe and superior supplements and fitness food from name brand manufacturers. More info, FitRx.com.
