We expect your pitcher to be in season — and we take that seriously. Playing time, position, practice schedules, and other commitments are all factored into each athlete's individual training plan. Safety leads every decision we make.

Why Small Cohorts

Your athlete trains alongside the same group for the full six months. That consistency builds trust, accountability, and real standards.

Group work isn't about saving time — it's about learning faster. Pitchers see corrections in real time, absorb feedback from coaches and peers, and retain more because they're part of the process, not isolated from it.

They push each other through hard weeks. They celebrate progress together when goals are hit.

Development is hard. It's easier — and more effective — when you don't do it alone.

Our Coaches

Every TAP Athletes instructor is a prior pitcher or prior high school coach and a full-time employee — building development plans in the afternoon, giving instruction in the evening. Every plan is built within a system authorized and signed off by our lead instructor, who brings over 12 years of pitching instruction and coaching experience and graduate-level training in exercise science and sports performance. Your athlete isn't getting one coach's gut feeling — they're getting a system that's been built, tested, and held accountable.
