IF YOU HAVE PREIVOUSLY PLAYED WITH HIT CLUB AND ARE INTERESTED IN REGISTERING FOR THE SUMMER SEASON , PLEASE REACH OUT TO US AT HITCLUBBASEBALL@GMAIL.COM
Our summer program is designed for rapid development. By pairing bat speed drills and swing analysis tools, we plan on challenging hitters physically and mentally. We want our hitters to be mindful of their movements and take every swing with a clear intent in mind.
Hit Club will create tiered teams for our high school-age teams (players in grades 9-11 in spring 2021). Players will be placed on either the "local team" or the "showcase team." Local teams will play in Northern California tournaments, while showcase teams will play in larger tournaments and showcases beyond our local area. Players may have the opportunity to advance from the practice team to the showcase team each season.

Blast Motion
Blast Motion sensors easily attach to the knob of the bat and allow the coaches to analyze numerous components of the swing including bat speed, attack angles, and bat path. This swing information will automatically download on to a digital profile we can access to do a full swing analysis. We will then be able to print out “report cards” for each player and identify where their strengths/weaknesses are and how they can improve. Since the data from each swing gets recorded to the Blast Connect app within seconds, we will also be able to make real time coaching adjustments in practice. This technology is heavily used in college/professional baseball and is a major component college coaches rely on to recruit players.
Blast Motion sensor and online profile for new players: $150
(players from Fall 2020 and Winter 2021 still have access to their account at no additional charge)
3 evaluation reports for each player (Week 2, Week 6, Week 9)
Ability to evaluate swings remotely (swing data can be recorded anywhere the sensor is connected to the app)
Video analysis feature
Competitions set up on team pages (most improved, best bat speed, most swings, etc.)
