Over 25 years of coaching players from tee ball to College. Experience coaching both teams and private lessons. One on one or group and team training available. I work to improve what the player needs as an individual as opposed to "cookie cutter" training where every player is taught exactly the same way.
Seeing kids improve at a steady rate makes me very happy for them. I only hope that I had something to do with that. I know it's a process and there's no such thing as instant improvement. You get from good to great one step at a time. Strive to get 1% better every day.

Great coach. Knows what he’s talking about.
I can whole heatedly recommend Mark! He did a great job with my son. He built a good rapport with him, encouraging him to push himself during the training. My son got a lot out of the sessions skill-wise and enjoyed it as well.
Mark has a wealth of knowledge and drills in o help my kids work on the fundamentals of fast pitch softball and baseball. He’s humorous, encouraging, and instills a love for the game in my kids. I have seen their confidence grow as a result. Well worth it!
Mark Meger is an experienced and excellent baseball coach. He gave a series of lessons recently to two of my grandsons, who gained skills and confidence. The boys liked him, enjoyed his friendly approach, and had fun while learning. We intend to continue with the lessons with Mark. Regards, Gene Liss
15-20 minutes observation to see players current ability level and develop a plan and take it from there. What I see most in young hitters, and pitchers for that matter is lack of a freedom of movement. I start with deliberate practice of movements and progress to making those movements aggressive. Secondly an aggressive midset must be developed.
For defensive play, footwork is probably the biggest area of improvement along with the movements and mindset previously mentioned for most young players.
Over 25 years coaching experience..from T-Ball and Instructional to College level, 6-18+ yr olds. Currently coaching the Park Ridge Warriors 14U Blue Travel along with instructing at CBA.
Available on website.
After coaching young players back in '88-'89, started working with players individually by request and this really evolved when I started coaching my own childrens' teams and it grew from there.
All levels as stated previously. the truly dedicated players with a love for the game are the most rewarding and naturally get the best results.
More than anything, seeing a player really begin to love the game and the smiles on their face when they improve.
Saw this with a 12 year old and an 11 year old most recently. I really enjoy when they want to let me know about their recent successes on the field in game play.
Find a coach that can adjust to your style of play that doesn't teach everyone the same. You're all different. Different abilities, different styles, different strengths.
Students (parents) should realistically asses their skill level when they begin training and periodically track progress. We need to do this as coaches also and adjust our approach as needed to be of the utmost help to our students.
