CHOOSE THE RIGHT STARTING POINT
BASEBALL EVALUATION AND PLAYER DEVELOPMENT
Before adding lessons or changing mechanics, get clear on the question you need answered. Choose the assessment or coaching service that fits the work.
Player Evaluation
PRE-EVALUATION FORM REQUIRED
The One-Skill Player Evaluation is a live, in-person instructional assessment starting at $250. I start by seeing how you perform it naturally, identify what already works, and test an adjustment to the main development priority. Written direction follows within 2 business days after the completed session and receipt of any required materials. Two- and three-skill options are also available.
How it works
Three steps. One clearer direction.
01 | Tell me about the player
Share your goals, baseball background, current challenges, and available video.
02 | Get the right assessment
Choose a live Player Evaluation for instructional development or a Professional-Style Player Scouting Report for a read on the present player.
03 | Follow the plan
Use the recommendations to organize your next work around the first priority and your development goals.
What you receive
Each service explains what to submit, what will be reviewed, and what happens next. The purpose is to help you understand the player's current work, identify the main priority, and leave with a practical next step.
Is this the right starting point?
Start here when you need direction before adding more lessons, changing mechanics, or making another development decision. Players, parents, coaches, and representatives can use that understanding to support the next step.
What happens next?
Complete the form for the service you are considering. I review the information and help clarify whether an In-Person Player Evaluation, a Professional-Style Player Scouting Report, or coaching fits your needs. You will know what to prepare and how the service will work.
