Greg Hovde

Jessica (CoachUp client)

Coach Greg was exactly what my son was looking for. My son is a freshman in HS and needed some feedback regarding batting and fielding. Coach Greg was very knowledgeable, patient, and motivating. I could tell he is very passionate about coaching and baseball. Our other coach moved out of state so we were glad to find Greg. He’s very reasonably priced and responsive.

Paula (CoachUp client)

Coach Greg is very knowledgeable and makes what he is teaching easy to understand. My grandson loves his lessons and looks forward to them each week. He is easy to communicate with, is always on time and answers all our questions. We highly recommend him.

Steve (CoachUp client)

Great session today on fielding and throwing mechanics. He has great command of fundamentals and stresses the importance of learning the correct techniques. He is incredibly knowledgeable and a gifted teacher. A+ session.

Monte (CoachUp client)

Great session with Coach Greg, my son learned more in an hour session than he has with any of his current little league coaches. Looking forward to seeing how much he continues to develop under Coach Greg.

Stephanie (CoachUp client)

Coach Greg's personalized instruction and attention to detail helped my son improve his mechanics and overall performance on the field.
We are grateful for the opportunity to work with Coach Greg and look forward to continued progress in future practices.

Michael (CoachUp client)

Rob (CoachUp client)

Glen (CoachUp client)

Great coach! Very knowledgeable and professional. He relates very well with young players and my 15 year old son really enjoyed his first session with Coach Hovde. We will definitely be booking future sessions-Highly recommend!

Michael (CoachUp client)

Coach was very knowledgeable. We came to work on hitting and worked on that part for less than10 minutes. More concerned with overall skills assessment which is fine, but not what we asked for.

Jacob (CoachUp client)

Coach easily spotted mechanical issues with my sons pitching motion and gave him drills to help strengthen his motion. Not only did he show him how to correct the issues he explained why it needed to be corrected and how it effects his motion doing it the wrong and right way.
We’ve been looking for the right coach for awhile, but I think the search is over.

Very happy with Coach Greg. He gave Stella the basic fundamentals to really be a successful softball player! (and gave mom some ideas on how to work with her at home!)

Gavin (CoachUp client)

Great coach.

Paul (CoachUp client)

Coach Greg was great at the first session with my son. He really seems like he is going to help him with his pitching.

Benjamin (CoachUp client)

Coach Greg does a great job with my 8th grade daughter. He has pointed out and supplied drills to cleanup certain areas of her swing. He is great with fielding and throwing drills. His time, attention, and knowledge equate to great sessions.

Angela (CoachUp client)

My son has been going through a bit of a slump so we met up with Coach Greg for a bit of 1:1 training. Greg started with the basics of warming up; tossing the ball back and forth and asked my son if he had noticed the ball had a constant trajectory away from the target. My son said yes and asked why it always did that. Greg corrected the way he has been holding and releasing the ball and now the ball hits his target. Greg also caught the error in the way my son was holding the bat. My son has been playing baseball for about 7 years and none of his coaches thought to correct these. After seeing Greg, my son is more confident and is looking forward to his next session.

Coach Greg is great with both our boys (10 & 8 years old). He makes great use of his time with them. On day one, he quickly evaluated their skills and focused on their specific needs. He has high expectations and works them hard. I’m looking forward to their next sessions.

Franco (CoachUp client)

Coach Greg was great. He identified areas of improvement and gave my son instruction on how to improve in those areas. Coach Greg was encouraging and a good teacher. My son had fun and looks forward to seeing Coach Greg again. At my sons next practice, my son had more confidence and I already saw improvement in his hitting.

Stacy (CoachUp client)

My son is learning so much regarding the basics and mechanical skills of baseball. We had to step back and help my son improve his game. I’m thrilled with Coach Greg and so happy I found him. My son really likes him too! Thank you, Coach Greg.

Ritchie (CoachUp client)

Coach Greg is a pleasure to work with. He has a positive approach, communicates effectively, and quickly identified areas where my son can improve. He sent us home with drills and encouragement. I’m confident that my son left our session with tools to make him a better player.

Megan (CoachUp client)

Wow! Greg is awesome! My 9 year old started pitching this year. He’s an athletic kid, but hasn’t been taught all the fundamentals of being a good pitcher. Greg broke down each piece of the pitching mechanics and helped my son understand what makes up good form. He was super interactive, asking my son questions that made him think critically about body movements and strategy. He gave him homework, things to work on at practice and focus on at home. We will definitely be scheduling another session soon. Thanks Greg!

Randy (CoachUp client)

Others have said it and it's absolutely true. After one session my 11 year old son realized a big improvement in pitching and general throwing fundamentals. Greg's approach has been to focus on basic mechanics which makes a lot of sense. I am looking forward to the improvements as lessons continue. My son has a fair amount of little league experience and I am confident Greg will get him to the next level and beyond.

Sierra (CoachUp client)

Had our first lesson with coach Greg and my son really learned a lot in just one hour. He is very excited for his next lesson and motivated to learn all he can. Greg was very good with him and showed him some tricks right away that he used the very next day at practice. Looking forward to seeing his improvements after each lesson he has

Melanie (CoachUp client)

Coach Greg is awesome! Just after one lesson, my son learned and improved so much! We will definitely be scheduling additional lessons with him!

Daniel (CoachUp client)

Coach Greg was great had slot of experience you can tell right away my son learned a lot and we booked more sessions immediately thanks coach!!

Nichole (CoachUp client)

We had our first session with Coach Greg and he was awesome. He had excellent drills to go over the basics with my 8 year old. We plan on making it a weekly session because I think my son will get a lot out of his coaching.

Logan (CoachUp client)

Great 1st session with coach Greg. He is really good about breaking down simple fundamental mechanical skills in order to be better in the long term. He works really well with my 10 year old son. Focuses on what you would like to achieve and gives both positive and working feedback

Coach Greg is very thorough. My son is 9 and this is his second season of Baseball. He is a naturally athletic, talented child and knew that fine tuning his skills would benefit him greatly. Coach Greg gives detailed, easily understood directions and also made it fun, yet trying for Jaiden. You can definitely see my sons wheels turning. I am VERY pleased with our session and can’t wait until next week! Thanks Coach!

Henry (CoachUp client)

Coach Greg was fantastic. My 12 year old son was a mediocre pitcher. After a session with Coach Greg, his pitching form and ball speed improved dramatically. He taught him the fundamentals and what to work on to improve his skills.

Kellie (CoachUp client)

I have a softball player who is at an age division where she should be sliding with confidence. She was a catcher in her younger years and didn't have the opportunity to develop her base running skills. At her current division, she is expected to know it. Time is not spent at practices working on sliding. I hired Greg and had to postpone because she had an injury. Finally connected and it was great! He really started from the basics and did not advance to full sliding until he believed that she believed she could do it confidently. Success! She needs to still put the work in but now has a greater understanding of the mechanics and how to do it safely. I can't wait for this season to start to see her in action. Thanks Greg!

Megan (CoachUp client)

Coach greg did a great job with my 10 year old son. I can see an improvement in just one lesson. He gave my son some great tips that he will forever have. He was also flexible with booking times. Looking forward to booking more sessions with him.

Coach Greg is an excellent coach that I would recommend for all levels. He has been coaching my grandson on baseball fundamentals and it has already made a big difference in his play and confidence. He is very knowledgeable and patient and takes time to explain the skill and then drill the technique. I would recommend Coach Greg to beginners or highly experienced players.

Monica (CoachUp client)

Coach Greg did a great job with our boys. In our first session he brought them back to the basics and taught them new skills. He only focused on fielding that first session. They actually loved it and learned a lot. Our 12-year old is trying out for a competitive team and said he felt more confident because of the one session they've had so far. Both boys have asked us to schedule more coaching sessions with Greg. We definitely will and recommend him to everyone.

Kyle (CoachUp client)

Coach work well at teaching fundamentals and building confidence. He was punctual and was prompt with responses.Great job, we will plan to use him again next time we are in California. Thanks Coach!

Coach Greg is very skilled and knowledgeable and is teaching me how to throw a softball and play defense. I am becoming a better softball player with each lesson.

Coach Greg is the most knowledgeable baseball/softball person I have ever met. If my daughter does the work, she is sure to make her high school team.

We want to thank Coach Greg for his efforts in building confidence and valuable skills in both our sons.
After two sessions, there is already a noticeable difference in the way they are playing. Further, they look forward to coming to "practice" every week!
