More About Coach Nicholas

4 years experience in a coaching position. Primarily assistant level and coaching baseball/softball clinics with 50+ athletes at once. I've been offering private baseball/softball lessons for the past 6 years. Love working with all age groups! I enjoy sharing love for baseball/softball, and sports in general (especially with the younger athletes). I always recommend playing as many sports as possible! Also I'm currently fresh out of my professional baseball career so relating to older more matured players, is something I'm very good at!

Played with and against many elite professional players including; Javier Baez, Madison Bumgarner, Ian Desmond, BJ Upton, Michael Morse, Brandon Crawford, Matt Cain and more

Reached the AA level of professional ball

Played full season for low A Augusta Green-jackets

Played Short season A for Salem-Keizer Volcanoes

Drafted in 2016 in the 26th round by the San Francisco Giants

Played 4 years of NCCA Division II baseball at Eckerd College

2016 College stats: AVG .388 H 59 R 35 SB 12/15 1st team conference

High school MVAL 1st-team all conference (Hagerstown MD)

My sessions are typically focused around individual needs and differences. If there's one thing I learned from my professional career it's that; not every swing, or throwing technique is the same. I love to make things as simple as possible, even for older players. The game is hard, making it simple and fun are the main ingredients for success.
My hitting drills focus mainly on timing, rhythm, creating power generating separation and having intent. Always working on different parts of the game with purpose!
Our first lesson will consist mostly of analyzing the swing, and asking what things in particular they struggle with. This is a major step to becoming a better player and all around person! From there I can offer suggestions on how to improve some problems or certain weak points.
With younger athletes I provide simple details and instructions to build consistency with certain drills. With older more advance athletes I love sharing the knowledge and experience of success and failure, to enhance their mental toughness. Which is the main factor to becoming a collegiate or professional ball player.

Great guy my son loved him and will try using him again when we have time. Thanks

Coach Nick was awesome! Super patient and knowledgeable. my 8yo cant wait for his next session!

Coach Nick has been great with my son. He's been able to fine tune some of his swing while still stressing the importance of hard work. I appreciate that he doesn't get too technical. He passed on some tips to help to continue improving and was able to tailor some drills to focus on what my son needed to improve on specifically. Thanks for being passionate about the game Nick! As a coach myself I see that rubs off on the kids as well.

People are commenting on how much he has improved and are asking if he worked with someone and who it was. He is pulling the ball in practice and is one-hopping the fence, he is really improving. He's hitting off one of the best pitchers in the league! Thank you for everything and can't wait to work with you again.
