Teacher by day - Throwing expert by night
Teacher by day - Throwing expert by night
Hello parents. My name is Tommy and I'm a teacher at an elementary school and have been giving pitching/hitting lessons for about 15 years. Throwing & pitching mechanics are my specialty. Over the years, aside from all the pitchers I've worked with, I've been known to help players with arm pain/accuracy problems. Mechanics are everything and over the last 20 years, I simply don't see them being taught correctly. I'm happy to chat with you and very quickly get rid of your child's arm pain for good. Also, I work out of my friends indoor facility called The Yardhouse in Ogden area. (I could also meet you at a place that best serves you also) Let me know your questions!

Get to know Coach Thomas
About Me:
I don’t play baseball any more, but I compete in marathons, ultra-marathons and lift. I sincerely believe a coach should practice what they preach
How I can help you improve your game:
I was undefeated my entire varsity career and a top prospect in college. But also, I suffered injuries; 2 shoulder surgeries & broke my leg. I was stronger, threw harder and can run faster than before these i juries occurred.. its not luck, it’s knowledge, determination & know-how
What a typical training session looks like with me:
Fun.. I will always miss the days of training and want to deliver the amazing times I had as a young player. My information is solid, but the fun we have is what will cement that knowledge in a players brain
Career summary and accomplishments:
New York State High school pitcher of the year. 2005 NY State Camps: American Legion. 2005 American Legion Pitcher of the year. 2005 American Legion MVP
Best coach I ever had:
My Varsity coach. He was pleased with my performances, but ALWAYS let me know what I was leaving on the table. He taught us all how to have a mind that was always happy, but never satisfied.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
That I am very aware of, and teach my players the biggest irony in training: When you stop worrying about being successful, but can still train and work hard, you’ll become more successful than you could ever dream of. Lose your expectations, enjoy the ride and find the fun in practice. If yo mu can do that, wild things will happen.

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.
What if I don't love the first lesson?
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.
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 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!
