At the end of the day, the people/players who work their butts off every single day are usually the ones that see the results. None of this “it’s my off day”. You either are working towards something 24/7 365 or you’re not. Push the limit

Do you actually want to play college baseball or do you just like the idea of having a commitment post/edit and getting a couple hats and some shirts?
Huge difference in those kinds of people. Coaches recognize them. Don’t lie to yourself.

Its opening day for D1 Baseball. I’m going to post a little thread about what our high school aged players can watch for
*spend 1 hour watching and pay attention*

What most ball players miss most after they are done is the relationships they’ve built with their boys
Don’t forget that it’s just a game. The relationships last forever. Made memories to last a lifetime and made some of my best bud because of a white round ball

Just a reminder that having good showcase numbers doesn’t mean you’re good at baseball.

It matters if you’re actually good at baseball then the numbers matter.
Be good at baseball then worry about the numbers.

Last thing I’ll mention as school is beginning. Make an effort to include people. I know you didn’t ask for it, but as a high level athlete in your school you’ll be looked at as a leader. People want to follow you. Set a good example and make others feel good. It matters

One of the main things that most 14-18 year olds don’t notice is the time high level college/pro players put into their craft outside team practice and the focus they do it with. Make sure your reps are meaningful with a high level of focus! KEEP WORKING!

I might be biased, but I like to think what 3T’s Select does on its “off weekend” is the best around
Mixed players off 14/15 teams and players from 15/16 teams
It’s not just about baseball, it’s about building relationships among players and families

If you call home runs “dingers” you have lost all credibility as a baseball coach, player, parent, or fan. Call em nukes, pumps, bombs, tanks, or literally anything else but “dingers”

I played for a coach in college who would talk about the “power of observation daily

In our organization we have 300-400 players. One of the most important things for me is that our 8th grade/HS players are seen often by our younger ages (7-13). The older players set the culture of hard work and effort that all the younger players see daily.
