A San Francisco Baseball Academy Will Bring Out Skills You Never Knew You Had

By Gloria Mason


Baseball has been a famous sport for over a century. Little kids often times have big dreams of one day becoming a professional player. Although, the odds of entering the big leagues is not very good, by practicing and understanding the game as much as possible, a person will drastically increase the chances of reaching their dreams. To do this for their children, many parents enroll their kids into the San Francisco Baseball Academy.

Two private lessons are two on one sessions. What that means is that two coaches will be working with one child. The classes will be either one half hour in length or one hour. This will depend on what type of classes were signed up for. Students who are signed up for either class will receive the same attention as each other. The only difference will be the length of the classes. Even though some may only need the half hour sessions, taking part in the full one hour classes will give a student more time to practice and learn the essential skills that they need to be the best that they can be.

The master coach will draw up an individual plan for each of their students. The whole reason for this plan is to pinpoint how the students skills are going to be improved. It is always advised that parents get involved and work with the coaches. Nobody knows the strengths and weaknesses of a child than their own parents.

Kids of all ages can enjoy the academy. There are classes for preschool, elementary, middle and high school kids. The strategies that are taught will depend on the child's skills, as well as their age. Kids who are from ages three to six will be taught the fundamentals of baseball. They will learn what the bat is for and how to use it. They will learn how to put on a glove and how to catch a ball. All of the basic rules of the game will also be taught.

Children who are in the elementary school age bracket will learn the physical demands of the game. They'll learn things such as how to slide into bases, both head first and feet first. Coaches will also note their best strengths and help them them improve on those strengths.

Middle school aged children will be going through physical changes in their lives and will be paid special attention to. Lots of focus will be on the mind game that the sport is. Besides practicing offense and defense, teamwork will be emphasized on.

Once kids are of high school age, they will usually know what position they are comfortable playing at. They will practice defensive strategies of that position and will learn how important it is to stay in shape. Their job on the team will be more understood.

The San Francisco Baseball Academy has batting cages that will be useful to anyone who wants to rent one. Pitchers will also find the pitching tunnel useful to practice throwing the ball. No matter what a person needs, the academy has everything possible for a person to improve their game.
