Helping Athletes Build Confidence, Consistency, and Performance

Get to know Coach Caleb
About Me:
My name is Caleb and I spent eight years playing professional baseball in the Chicago Cubs organization after graduating from the University of Virginia. Throughout my career, I learned that talent alone isn’t enough to succeed. Your mindset, preparation, and daily habits separate good players from great ones.
Today, I’m passionate about helping athletes maximize their potential through personalized baseball instruction and mental performance coaching. Whether you’re trying to make your high school team, earn a college scholarship, or play professionally, my goal is to help you build confidence, develop consistent routines, and enjoy the game while reaching your full potential.
How I can help you improve your game:
Every athlete is different, so every lesson is tailored to your specific goals. Whether we’re working on hitting mechanics, approach at the plate, defensive mindset, baseball IQ, confidence, or handling pressure, I’ll create a plan that fits your needs.
As a remote coach, I provide detailed video analysis, personalized drills, mental performance strategies, and game planning that you can immediately apply in practice and competition. My focus isn’t just making you a better player today, it’s helping you become a smarter, more confident athlete for the long term.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
Each session begins by identifying your goals and reviewing recent games and performance. From there, we’ll break down your mechanics, approach, and decision-making before building an individualized plan.
For baseball instruction, we’ll cover swing analysis, timing, approach, situational hitting, or defensive concepts depending on your needs. For mental performance, we’ll work on confidence, routines, visualization, breathing techniques, focus, and strategies for performing under pressure.
You’ll leave every session with clear action items and drills so you know exactly what to work on before we meet again.

Best coach I ever had:
The best coaches I had weren’t necessarily the ones who knew the most baseball. They were the ones who believed in me, challenged me, and taught me how to think through the game. They emphasized preparation, accountability, and controlling what I could control every day.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
My coaching philosophy is simple: relationships come first, development comes second, and results will follow.
I believe in honest feedback, positive encouragement, and creating an environment where athletes enjoy learning. My goal isn’t just to help players perform better next weekend, it’s to give them the skills, mindset, and confidence they will carry throughout their baseball journey and beyond.
Whether you’re a young player just getting started or an advanced athlete chasing the next level, I’m committed to helping you reach your goals through individualized coaching, clear communication, and a proven professional approach.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I contact a coach?
If you’re looking to message a coach for the first time, go to their profile and click “Send a Message”. A type box will show, where you can enter and send your message. To follow up with a coach you've already contacted, log into your account and find the 'Inbox' tab. You'll see your message history and be able to send another note.
How do I book lessons?
Once you find a coach that fits your needs, go to their profile, select the package you'd like to purchase, and click 'Book Lessons'. Here, you can reserve your desired number of lessons along with the number of athletes who will be training. After sessions are booked, coordinate the dates/times for each session on your calendar - using the calendar is important since this is how your coach will get paid.
Can I pay my coach via Venmo or cash?
Paying AU coaches via cash, Venmo, or any 3rd party is strictly prohibited. AU coaches know this, but their partnership with us is to split all bookings 80/20 - so coaches keep 80%. We use our 20% to help them find clients & manage their business. Without the split, we wouldn't be able to help our coaches & community thrive!
What if I don't feel comfortable paying online?
We integrate with Stripe - the largest & most secure payment processor in the US - to facilitate bookings. Paying online is required, and it simplifies the process for our coaches since it helps track their schedule & earnings in one place. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.
Where will the coach hold their lessons?
Each coach typically has at least one preferred training location. You can see the location(s) by going to your coach's profile and finding the 'Training Locations' section. If a coach doesn't have locations listed here, you can message the coach to see where they train. Some coaches are willing to travel to clients for lessons, or even meet halfway.
When is the coach available to train?
Each coach sets their own schedule for training. You can see a coach's general availability by going to their profile and finding the 'Availability' section - it will list the days and times. If a coach doesn't post their availability, or if your preferred coach doesn't have your desired times available but you want to double check, message them to see if they can work with your schedule.
How do rescheduling, cancellations, and lesson credits work?
Good Fit Guarantee — If your first lesson isn't the right fit, we'll move your lesson credit to a new coach. No hassle.
Easy rescheduling — Cancel or reschedule up to 4 hours before a lesson, no questions asked.
Coach no-shows — You'll be fully credited and we'll help you find a replacement.
Flexible credits — Unused lessons last 12 months and can be used with any coach on the platform.

Do coaches work with both kids & adults?
Our coaches are open to helping athletes of any age and skill level. Please message your desired coach to ensure their skillset fits your needs.
Why should I trust AU and their coaches over other platforms?
AU was created by former college and pro athletes. We understand the benefits of training with a private coach. It develops discipline, boosts confidence, and provides an undeniable advantage - whether you are just learning the game or looking to earn a college scholarship. All AU coaches are required to pass a thorough onboarding process + background check, so you can trust you're training with the best.
At the end of the day, our mission is to provide athletes with better opportunities to succeed through coaching. You won't find a platform, and group of dedicated specialists, more excited to help you achieve your athletic goals!
