The Warriors are pleased to have Coach Doug Pringle join its practice on Tuesday night. Coach Pringle will provide invaluable hitting instruction to our team throughout this practice. All Warriors, including our 11 year old players, are welcome to participate in this session. This session will be held from 5:30 pm until about 7:30 pm at Humphrey #2 on Tuesday, June 24th.
I was fortunate enough to coach a team a few years back with Coach Pringle. Having attended countless hitting clinics and individual Swingtown lessons, I have yet to see a more effective batting instructor than Coach Pringle.
Not only has Coach Pringle studied hitting for many years, but he is a fine hitter himself. He played through college and was offered a professional baseball contract. He points out that hitting a baseball is the toughest thing to do in all of sports. He also values practice and hard work--and mentions that he took no less than 500 swings nearly every day over a six year period.
Doug will discuss his hitting philosophy in general with the whole team before breaking out and working with individual players during the remainder of the session.
