Pizza Hut (3420 US Hwy 601, Ste 110, Concord, NC)BB Pitching Clinic - Foundation Builder (Beginner)
Designed for new pitchers, this small-group clinic helps young athletes build a solid foundation from the start. It is geared toward beginners, typically ages 8 to 11, whether they are moving from machine pitch to kid pitch or just beginning to learn proper throwing mechanics. With no more than five players, each participant receives focused attention that builds confidence and sound habits. Instruction follows a clear progression, covering body alignment, establishing a steady balance point, and finishing the motion for a safe, efficient delivery. Players explore basic pitch grips and why each one matters, then put skills into practice with engaging accuracy challenges that emphasize throwing strikes. The clinic also introduces simple arm care and warm-up routines to support healthy development.
BB Pitching Clinic - Power and Precision (Intermediate)
An intermediate pitching clinic designed for experienced youth and middle school players ages 12 to 15 focuses on progressing from simply throwing to true pitching. Athletes work on advanced mechanics to increase velocity, sharpen command, and control the strike zone while disrupting hitters’ timing. Instruction emphasizes generating power through the lower body, using the legs and hips to add speed without added stress on the arm. Participants are introduced to effective changeup grips and the importance of maintaining fast arm speed for deception. Targeted drills build precision by locating pitches in specific strike zone quadrants and sequencing to set up hitters. This session is intended for pitchers with prior experience who are ready to elevate their game with a blend of power and precision.
Cage Rats: Extra Reps (13-19)
Designed for athletes ages 13 to 19, Cage Rats: Extra Reps at D-BAT Concord provides focused training with guidance from qualified coaches. Players work on hitting, fielding, and speed and agility to refine mechanics, develop muscle memory, and build a well rounded skill set in a structured, supportive environment. Capacity is limited.
