  • How to teach young players to develop their reflexes to be able to catch a ball

  • How to help young baseball players become confident catching baseballs

  • Teaching young baseball players how to throw

  • Getting young baseball players to hit well, starting with using a tee, then with soft toss, and finally with pitched balls

  • Teaching young players how to play defense by fielding ground balls and throwing to first base to get a force out.

The Robbins brothers demonstrate their development of baseball skills in this course, including 17-year-old Spencer, 15-year-old Stephen, 12-year-old Ezra, 10-year-old Benjamin, 8-year-old Christian, and 6-year-old Joey.
