Teaching the fundamentals of the game with Mark Mckenzie

Description

Infield or outfield, batting or pitching, each require their set of fundamentals. Without them, there wouldn't be high level athletes or big leaguers. Throwing, catching, and hitting are the three primary skills required to play baseball. Young players with a passion for this game should look to improve the skills in these three primary areas. Pitching and fielding are considered slightly more difficult however they too require a clear understanding of fundamentals. 

 

It's an obvious fact that great players understand that mastering the basics of baseball is one of the most important aspects of improving their skills. Big leaguers make the most routine of plays look completely effortless because they are able to execute the movements in their sleep.

 

In this course, Mark “lunch” Mckenzie talks about the fundamentals of the game, as well as how he approaches his players when teaching them everything they need to know. He breaks down what he practices and what drills he uses to help develop his players. A guidebook to baseball 101.
