Only a few more positional workouts to go this year. It's been great to get a chance to work so closely with such a keen group of young outfielders. Let's hope the hard work we've put in indoors will translate and pay off once we hit the high skies come spring! #outfield #pickups #crowhop #stepbehind ... #findit #power #batting #hitting #balanbaseballacademy See more

Sad to see it end, but our fall training program has wrapped up! These guys put in some time, put in some work, focused up, and worked hard towards becoming better ballplayers. It was great for me to have a chance to work in the offseason with a whack of guys that I've had the chance to work mostly with on a field, in the simmerz when it counts. Being able to slow it all down with these guys and figure things out a bit deeper was a pleasure. Fingers crossed we can run our w...inter sessions unimpeded. Fingers crossed..... #offseason #training #development #baseball #makingmoves

Continuing the great work with the Royals. Keeping after it. Patiently waiting and working, but also can't wait for spring.... #royals #baseball #grind #offseason

Had a tonne of fun as a guest with @riannaposkin on The Youth Podcast. We chatted about playing, coaching, and just generally trying to be a good human. I feel we all need to remember to try to be good humans these days.... If anyone wants to hear some great content about youth sports, check out Rianna's podcast.

As a coach, I'm very appreciative of the fact that not only do I get to coach for and represent an organization like the Ontario Royals, bit I also get a chance to learn from some top level instructors. I've always been mostly a hitting, pitching, and outfield coach. While I'm helping all our catchers out this fall during our positional workouts, I'm pumped about getting a chance to learn more and refine my coaching craft. Coach McLaren and coach Olsen are doing a great job l...eading the way through these sessions with this group of gnarly catchers. These kids love to GET AFTER IT... I'm stoked to have the chance to learn more effective ways to coach, and happy to be a part of the players' learning process. #hardnose #catchers #ontsrioroyals

Positional workouts beginning this week for all our Royals teams. Time to slow it down, break it down, pick it apart, and have at it! #offseason ... #training #breakitdown #ontarioroyals #balanbaseballacademy See more

It's the weekend, it's the morning, but the boys still wanted to get the work in. Who am I to argue with a bunch of 15u guys that don't want to take a day off? #nodaysoff #tireless #workneverstops #allforball #baseballislife #balanbaseballacademy

15u training, a little behind the scenes with coach Clarke. Got on top of that breaking ball baby.... #curveball #breakingball #getontop #stayontop #balanbaseballacademy
