About Me:
Grant Fennell is a former minor league baseball player with an impressive track record of success and leadership on and off the field. He was a 2014 High School All-American and went on to become a 2-time Mountain West Champion (2015, 2018), earning the title of Mountain West MVP and All-American in 2018. During his collegiate career, he was recognized for his dedication to academics as a 4-time Academic All-Conference honoree.
After college, Grant continued his winning ways as a member of the 2018 Northwest League Champion Eugene Emeralds. He also graduated with a degree in Business Management, maintaining a 3.0+ GPA. With his blend of athletic achievement, academic discipline, and professional experience, Grant is dedicated to helping the next generation of baseball players reach their full potential.
How I can help you improve your game:
I help players improve their game by focusing on the fundamentals while also developing their mental and physical approach. I work with each player to assess their strengths and areas for improvement, tailoring drills and exercises to target specific skills like hitting, fielding, and base running. But it’s not just about technique—I also emphasize building confidence, creating a strong work ethic, and fostering a positive mindset. By combining personalized training with a competitive, growth-focused approach, I aim to help players reach their full potential and excel in every aspect of the game.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
A typical training session starts with a brief warm-up to get the body loose and ready to move. From there, we dive into drills that focus on specific areas of the game, like hitting, fielding, or base running. I make sure the drills are tailored to the player's current skill level while gradually challenging them to improve. We also work on the mental side of the game, with a focus on confidence, decision-making, and staying focused under pressure. I provide real-time feedback and positive reinforcement throughout the session. Finally, we finish with a cool-down and a quick review to highlight progress and set goals for the next session. The goal is always to improve while making it fun and competitive!

Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I ever had was Jay Johnson. His dedication and leadership were unmatched, and he genuinely wanted every player to succeed, using positive reinforcement to bring out our best. He started as my coach at Nevada and later became the head coach at LSU, where he led his team to victory in the 2023 College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska. His passion for the game and commitment to his players left a lasting impact on me.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I grew up in sunny San Diego, playing every ball sport I could find. My dream was always to play professional baseball—and, of course, to beat my older brother at whatever sport we were playing next. I bring that same confidence and competitive drive to coaching, helping the next generation reach their full potential both on and off the field.

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!
