PAA Clinics Overview
Players will be matched with a coach to emphasize proper instruction of fundamentals in a small 4-player per coach setting.
Pitching, batting, catching, in-fielding techniques, outfield techniques, as well as situational work will be taught to those individuals.
Drills will be utilized weekly to emphasize proper fundamentals.
Players will rotate on a weekly basis, giving each player the best possible amount of time to be instructed by each coach.
Players will also use a notebook to collect information about proper techniques and drills in order to continue to improve.
The goal of the coaches is to provide a solid foundation for all players to be successful in the future at many different positions and levels.
All age groups welcome except sophomores, juniors & seniors in high school.
Please welcome these instructors into our program:
Ted Gardiner - Poolesville High School Varsity Head Coach
Steve Orsini - Poolesville High School Junior Varsity Head Coach
Terry Young - Poolesville High School Junior Varsity Assistant Coach
Gary Gardiner - Poolesville High School Varsity Assistant Coach
