Coach JP Says:
There are a lot of guys who know the game but many fewer who can really translate the information to others. Coach Altopp, with the help of a youth player starts you with how to properly hold a baseball bat and a achieve a proper, comfortable stance in the batter box. 5 minutes later, you are on to much more advanced aspects of teaching the game to younger players and their dads & coaches... and he won't lose you along the way. Like I said...some just have a knack for teaching... and this particular coach has the added ability of relating to the younger and obviously, the college ballplayer! It's a very good matched set so you can learn multiple parts of the game more quickly by utilizing the same style from the same coach! And...you save $9.95 too.
