Our 4-week Complete Catchers Clinic is a program is designed to better your catcher’s pop-up times, agility and flexibility. The program will consist of strength training exercises and catching drills. We will go over the basics and advanced technics a catcher needs to excel in: receiving, framing, blocking, fielding, and throwing. Besides these fundamentals, we will teach your catcher how to control the game and be a coach/ leader on the field.
