A Clear Path From First Rep to Game Rep

Each lesson is designed to give families more clarity, not just more swings, throws, or drills.

01
Assess

Start With the Player

Coaches look at age, current skill level, goals, confidence, and the situations that show up most often in games.

02
Build

Clean Up the Skill

Training breaks the skill into clear, repeatable pieces so the athlete knows what to feel and what to fix.

03
Apply

Move Toward Game Speed

Players work through reps that connect mechanics, decisions, timing, and pressure instead of staying stuck in drills.

04
Plan

Choose the Next Rep

Families leave with a better sense of whether the next step is another lesson, academy training, or team development.

My player freezes on ground balls. What does infield training work on?

Freezing is usually a first-step and footwork problem rather than a fear problem. Infield work at BBT builds cleaner footwork, faster first-step reactions, and the glove work and throwing decisions that follow the initial read.

Do you coach infield and outfield separately?

This lesson covers both. The underlying skills overlap heavily, and BBT tailors the session to the positions the player actually plays rather than splitting it artificially.

What do "reads and routes" mean in outfield training?

A read is the judgment a fielder makes off the bat, and the route is the path they take to the ball. Both are trainable, and they are usually the difference between an outfielder who arrives in time and one who does not.

Does defensive training include throwing and glove work?

Yes. Sessions cover glove work, throwing decisions, positioning, and defensive awareness, not just the initial fielding action.

Can a player work on defense and hitting in the same plan?

Yes. BBT builds development plans across skills, so families can combine defensive work with hitting, pitching, or catching depending on what the athlete needs most.
