    THE BASEBALL ACADEMY

    The Baseball Academy in Hudson. You will not find any better hitting instruction around. Classes run Fall through Spring, but they do special sessions upon request.

    7th Inning Stretch

    7th Inning Stretch in Granite Falls is is a great place to take a player that wants to improve his game. They have great young instuctors for hitting and pitching. The pitching instuctors are ex minor league guys that have improved many players in the area and helped get them to the next level. They work with all age groups and all levels of talent. Every player that I know that has had a lesson with Jason Harris (Hitting) or Denny Lail (Pitching) has walked away very happy and has improved because of the lessons. I would definately give them a chance to work with your son.

    The Heat Showcase Baseball teams work out at the facility and are coached by all of the instuctors at the 7th Inning Stretch.

    Thanks for the kind words Ropes. Are you campaigning for some free lessons?

    Hey...you mean if I put in a plug for "The Baseball Academy" and mention my good friend, TBA; I can get free lessons? I could use some help with my calisthenics (sp). I'm having trouble coming back up with my push ups. I'm thinking it's poor mechanics :laugh4:

    To all three programs and staffs... I would like to say thank you. I know you are in business to make money, but all are doing this area a great service. With the sucesses of the schools and legion teams in Caldwell County, all three give Caldwell County kids an oppertunity to better their skills and continue the line of quality baseball players for this community.

    Now if I could just make money off Caldwellbaseball.com... :hamer:

    7Th Inning Stretch

    Do not know anything about the Hitting Zone but I do know one kid that most likely would not have gotten a look since his HS team historically struggled. The player got great instruction from Jason Harris and Denny Lail and got the exposure support and confidence he needed. He progressed quickly and had interest from and was recruited by mulitple schools and will play next year.
    The Stretch was the right move for him and It is a great organization. I would highly recommend the Stretch.

    I can't imagine anyone being better a pitching instruction that Scott Bankhead at The Baseball Academy. He's great with the kids, especially as they get older (13-14 and up).
