One of the most neglected positions in high school baseball also happens to be one of the most important - the catcher. In this essential DVD, high school coaching great Mike Woods delivers stand-out techniques for developing triple-threat catchers, effective at receiving, blocking, and throwing.

A perfect complement to his instructional DVDs for high school hitters and pitchers, this must-have volume delivers drills that your catchers can (and should) execute every day.

Utilizing 28 progression drills you can implement immediately (many with multiple variations), you'll quickly develop catchers that are "solid and soft", make your pitchers look great, hold low strikes in the zone, effectively catch and release with speed and consistency, block pitches on all parts of the plate (from both righties and lefties!), keep the ball close at all times, clear hitters when throwing to third, improve arm strength, balance, and overall mechanics, and who stand out as weapons in your battery.

This DVD contains all the tools you need to improve overall performance while developing play behind the plate that contributes to success on the mound - and all-around excellence on the field.

Great for coaches and athletes
