About
I am the founder of Legacy Sports Clubhouse coming soon to Las Vegas towards the end of May 2021. Sunset and Pecos area.
I have worked with young players 4-24 since 1999. My patience and unique ability to see the movements of the player and be able to make the adjustments through drills is a learned skill. I have given 1000's of lessons to 100's of players of all skill levels. This takes hard work on both the player and the instructor. You are guaranteed 100% of my efforts and my knowledge of the game.
I am the State Evaluator and Scout for Area Scouts in Nevada.
I use video analysis and other data metrics to evaluate and train players.

"Building Legacies One Player at a Time" is my motto. My goal is to not only teach the player to play the game but to love the game the way I do. If I can build the passion for the game in the player their ability to learn to play this game is much easier.
What do I enjoy? Watching that player become something special in life.
My staff of former MLB, MiLB and college coaches are recruiting for players to join our baseball organization. visit www.legacysportsclubhouse.com for more info.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Evaluate with Video.
Breakdown the video with player and parents.
Create a lesson plan and set up the homework & lesson schedule for the player.
It takes 4 visits/lessons with homework to see noticable improvement in my experince. If a student doesn't improve the way I think they should I give extra time or don't charge for a lesson.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been giving lessons since 1999. I have studied the game for many years as a coach and have a unique ability to teach the process to help players improve. I've had owned a baseball academy for over 10 years and have done 1000's of lessons. I have had the opportunity to work and learn from several professional coaches, Scouts, college coaches, and MLB players. I am Pro Scout certified and G.A.M.E Certified and the State director for Area Scouts.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I charge $80 per hour. (occasionally I will do 1/2 hour lessons with younger players 7-8 year olds. at $40 per 1/2 hour)
I do 2 hour Team practices for $20 per player minimum of 10 players or $200. I leave the coach with the practice plan to replicate.
How did you get started teaching?
I was helping a young player in my garage and his father gave me 50 bucks for an hours work commenting that I should charge for my lessons because I was able to recognize flaws in his sons swing within 15 minutes and make adjustments for immediate help. He had been seeing an X-MLB guy that hadn't made improvement in over 6 months. Some guys do this for the money I do it for the Love of the Game and helping young players. I thankfully get paid doing what I Love.
What types of students have you worked with?
Boys and Girls from 4 years old to 24 years or college age. I have worked with minor league ball players during their off season. I have seen players from my lessons or past teams make it to the show.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
I Fished in the WON Bass open in April of 2018. This was my first Pro Bass fishing tournament. I took 15th place out of 158. Earned some money and caught an 8 lb bass and won a second check. Outside of baseball and family this was a cool event.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Make sure you are prepared to work as hard as I do teaching you to learn the game. I give 100% of my efforts teaching you. You will need to give me 100% learning the game. Then we will get along great.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
I am happy with all questions. There aren't really any bad questions and they should try to learn to think through all their questions. As far as needs of a ball player... it is to get better no matter what their skill is today.
