Fundamentals & Playing With Confidence - Baseball & Basketball Instructor

I’m Adam, a dedicated baseball and basketball coach with a lifelong passion for both sports and have done lessons for both. Private Instructor, High School & Travel Club coach. My journey started on the field and court, playing baseball and basketball up to the college level, with a focus as a utility player being able to play all positions.

In baseball, I had the opportunity to receive pitching lessons from Dave Zall, a former MLB pitching coach, and hitting lessons from Kelly Parris, a former St. Louis Cardinals utility player. This top-tier training, combined with my expertise in bodybuilding, flexibility, and plyometrics, has equipped me to help athletes improve their skills, enhance their athleticism, and prevent injuries, ensuring they stay healthy and perform at their best throughout their journey.

My basketball career was significantly influenced by my training under Craig Griffin, a former Fresno D1 collegiate player and head coach with 20+ years of experience. His coaching profoundly shaped my approach, emphasizing technique, strategy, and mindset.

Growing up, I was never the biggest, strongest, or most athletic, so I always had to put in extra time working diligently on the fundamentals. This taught me the value of hard work, consistency and commitment, lessons that I now pass on to my students.

As the oldest of five siblings, I’ve embraced the role of a mentor, guiding and motivating kids with a big brother approach. My coaching philosophy is built on fun, encouragement, and focusing on improving skills while teaching a growth mindset applicable to all areas of life. I emphasize not just the physical aspects of the sport, but also the mental side, helping kids develop true confidence. I believe we don’t fail, we either win or we learn.

I want them to understand the importance of paying attention to detail, communicating effectively & being a good teammate. I also emphasize essential life skills like time management, creating winning habits, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including diet and nutrition.

To kickstart my business, I’m offering my coaching services at a fraction of the cost of other coaches. It would be an honor to work with your child and make an impact to help them reach their full potential both on and off the field.
