Hello, my name is Zachary Raudebaugh and I’m a baseball coach who believes the game is about much more than wins and losses ⚾. My approach focuses on developing disciplined, confident players who understand both the fundamentals of baseball and the value of teamwork. I emphasize strong mechanics, situational awareness, and a high baseball IQ, but just as importantly, I work to build character, accountability, and resilience in every athlete I coach. I create a structured but positive environment where players are challenged to improve every day. I believe in clear communication, consistent expectations, and teaching players how to handle both success and adversity. Whether it’s refining a swing, improving defensive positioning, or learning how to compete with confidence, my goal is to help each player reach their full potential. I also prioritize respect — for teammates, coaches, opponents, and the game itself. I want players to leave my presence not only as better athletes, but as better leaders and teammates. My mission as a coach is simple: develop skilled players, strong competitors, and responsible young people who carry the lessons of baseball with them long after the season ends.

Get to know Coach Zachary
About Me:
I am a former high school baseball player and I have spent the last 3 years coaching high school and little league. I have coached kids who have gone on to be so much better than they were and have maintained good relationships with their families. I had to take a break from baseball when I was younger after having brain surgery to prevent seizures. But I came right back to it in high school.
How I can help you improve your game:
I can help improve Velocity, Accuracy, and mechanics on the mound as well as increasing contact and power in the box. I have worked very closely with pitchers and infielders in my time coaching. I never worked closely with the outfielders, but I played outfield in high school.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
A typical session with me would consist of stretching, excercising, running, fielding, pitching (if applicable), and hitting (depending on the location and age of athlete).
Career summary and accomplishments:
3 years of Varsity Baseball in high school, 1 year of volunteering as assistant coach after graduation, 2 years of coaching little league baseball, 1 gold glove award.
Best coach I ever had:
Ryan Vazquez. High School Coach
What athletes and parents should know about me:
Athletes and parents should know that I don’t go super easy on athletes. I don’t completely burn them out and put their health at risk, but I don’t let them get lazy either. Conditioning is a big part of development, and a little bit at a time goes a long way in the long run. Start small and increase intensity as we continue working together.

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?

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!
