Building Confident Pitchers. Inspiring Young Athletes.
Private coaching for young pitchers led by Texas Rangers minor league pitcher Michael Trausch.
Private 1:1 Pitching Sessions
Every great pitcher starts with a spark — that drive to get better, throw harder, and stand tall on the mound. My private pitching sessions are built to help young athletes strengthen not only their mechanics but their mindset.
Each session combines pro-level drills with real conversations about focus, confidence, and leadership, the same lessons that shaped my journey from Arizona fields to professional baseball. Players will walk away with sharper skills, stronger body awareness, and a deeper understanding of what it means to compete with purpose.
Train with intent. Grow with grit. Pitch with heart.
