Book Private Strength-and-speed Lessons with Coach Erick

Selected
  • Media

I can coach and train any kid at any skill level. My favorite baseball lesson is the kid who can barely catch the ball, moves awkwardly, and just wants to have fun playing baseball. If you’re very skilled, I will challenge you to become a master of your craft.

Get to know Coach Erick

About Me:

4 years as a college pitcher at Avila University. Pitched in 3 conference tournaments, and played in NAIA Regionals in 2016.

After graduating with my Masters in Kinesiology, I have been both a college pitching coach and today the director of player development for Avila Baseball.

How I can help you improve your game:

Make a drill easier or harder as needed. We practice in a way that builds character and instills confidence.

Movement skills (strength, balance, coordination) have to be in place. If you can’t move well, some baseball drills will make you feel worse. Let’s get good at all the elements!

What a typical training session looks like with me:

Warm Up - mobility, vision drills, athleticism

Any combination of pitching, hitting, or fielding with the remaining time.

Some lessons are more instruction. Some days we will make it competitive

Career summary and accomplishments:

13-17U Head Coach 2017-Present Personal Trainer 2017-present Avila Pitching Coach 2020-2023 Avila Player Development/Recruiting Coordinator 2023-present

Best coach I ever had:

Coach Cronk, played for him 4 years and coached 1 year. He passed away unexpectedly, he was the example of servant leadership on and off the field.

What athletes and parents should know about me:

I don’t just coach baseball in my lessons. I apply my kinesiology expertise to train kids to move well, see better, and give them homework so they can reach their maximum potential.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

The AU guarantee (refund policy) has you covered! If you determine the coach isn't a good fit after your first lesson, let us know within 24 hours and you're eligible for a refund. We will also be happy to recommend another coach - be sure to contact our support team.

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.

AU was created by former collegiate and professional 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 and we proudly showcase a 10% acceptance rate, 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!
