How often should I schedule lessons for my child?
Lesson frequency varies depending on the age, type of instruction, and season schedule. We work with each student individually to find a comfortable routine of instruction to get the most out of each lesson. Some basic guidelines to follow are:
Younger players ( 5-12 years old ) practice no more than 1 hour.
Older players 13+ can do longer lessons depending on the intensity of the workout.
Safety is always taken seriously. Pitching instruction for example must be watched carefully to ensure it will not interupt with the current season or prevent the player from being full strength in the field.
Please discuss your instruction with Mike personally, together you will schedule lessons that will work best for your players.
