The Short Porch Approach

Coaching That Fits the Infielder

Built Around You

Infielding is equal parts athleticism and intelligence, and your coach will work with you on both. Every session starts with a full assessment of your footwork, glove work, body positioning, and throwing mechanics — isolating the adjustments that will give you more range, more consistency, and a stronger, quicker release. From your pre-pitch read and first-step explosiveness to your fielding triangle and transfer, every detail is addressed with purpose.

But great infielders don't just react — they anticipate. We train the mental side of the position with the same intensity as the physical, helping you develop situational awareness, pre-pitch preparation habits, and the competitive instincts to make the right play when the game is on the line.

What You Can Expect

  • A personalized assessment of your footwork, glove work, and throwing mechanics
  • Targeted coaching to build range, consistency, and a clean, quick release
  • Situational reps — double plays, slow rollers, backhand plays, charge situations
  • First-step and reaction training to maximize your athleticism at the position
  • Clear, actionable feedback every single session

Open to players of all ages and skill levels — whether you're a baseball or softball player, learning the basics at shortstop or tightening up the details at third.
