Levi has put in so much work! 10/10 human! Any college program will be lucky to have this kid, and he developed into that baseball player. Always had the skill, now has the physical tools to go play at the next level. Oh he’s still got two more year of HS!
Most kids his age were focused on winning tournaments. @DrivelineYouth athlete Levi Baca was focused on adding 60 pounds of muscle and 30 mph of exit velocity. 142 lbs ➡️ 202. 77 mph EV ➡️105. This is what development looks like.

.@DrivelineYouth athlete Noah Coury came to Driveline with one goal, get better. Then he got injured. Most kids let that moment define them. Noah let it motivate him. He put his head down, trusted the program, and did the work nobody sees. In his latest mocap he hit 95 mph.

Most programs rank kids. We track them.⁠ ⁠ Travel ball is largely zero-sum. Your kid moves up when another kid moves down. The kid who doesn't start knows it. Feels it. Every single weekend. That environment doesn't build players - it builds anxiety.⁠ ⁠ At Driveline Academy, every player has a baseline and a trajectory. We measure how hard they swing, how hard they hit, how hard they throw, and how well they move. We test at the start of the year. We retest throughout. Your kid will know if they got better - because the numbers say so, not because a coach said so.⁠ ⁠ We've used this exact system with 100 MLB pitchers and thousands of college players.⁠ ⁠ Here's what else is real about this program:⁠ ⁠ → 6 months of off-season development. 5 months of competition. A dedicated no-throw period for every athlete. Arm health isn't a policy - it's the calendar.⁠ ⁠ → Strength, speed, and mobility training built into every week - not a separate thing you pay extra for. Kids develop as athletes first, specialists second.⁠ ⁠ → Every kid wears an arm sensor that tracks every throw - workload, intensity, recovery. Pitch counts are enforced. No six-week velocity tricks designed to spike a radar gun.⁠ ⁠ → Our tournaments stay in Washington and occasionally Oregon - close enough to drive to. No flights, no hotel chains, no $4,000 travel tabs. 9U–12U kids keep their Little League. We built this for the families we actually want to serve.⁠ ⁠ → Mental performance coaching through our partnership with 3A Athletics - so kids learn to handle pressure and failure, not just mechanics. We also include nutrition guidance and recruiting support.⁠ ⁠ → Scholarship support available for families in need. If this program is right for your kid, cost shouldn't be the reason they don't play here.⁠ ⁠ 🗓️ Tryouts start this Sunday, April 26 ⁠ 📍 Driveline Baseball - 23211 66th Ave S, Kent WA 98032 ⁠ ⚾ Teams 11U–18U - 90 minutes eval⁠ ⁠ Come see the facility, meet the coaches, and we'll evaluate your kid's swing, throw, and athleticism - and show them where they stand.⁠ ⁠ 🔗 Tryout sign up links in bio⁠ ⁠ #drivelinebaseball #skillsthatscale #youthbaseball #littleleague #pnwbaseball

Do Weighted Baseballs Hurt Kids' Arms? 🤔 Our preprint is out! "After we adjusted for ball mass, lighter-ball trials showed higher corrected joint moments in youth pitchers, and most of that gap shrank again once we also adjusted for pitch speed." doi.org/10.51224/SportRxiv.8…

The year-long research collection effort with @DrivelineYouth is nearing an end (maybe 2-3 more coming in at the last minute next week!). We're preparing our preprint for @SportRxiv and the @DrivelineBB blog! Subject: Joint Torque Differences w/ Weighted Balls, Youth Pitchers

Use the time between every swing to process what you might need to change.

Some mocap highlights from today @DrivelineBB College hitters are back in town and using their break to get objective data and turn it into a clear plan before the season‼️ 🚀🚀

Confession: I work @DrivelineBB and I wanted a hitter to focus on hitting a backside ground ball???? Here's a look at how we fix movement patterns daily 🧵

This hitter struggled with: Direction pulling off to pull side Early hip extension Attack angle too steep

Backside ground ball drill solves all three: Forced his direction more toward middle Keeps him in his hinge longer Lowers attack angle = more time "on plane" Bigger margin for error. Better contact.
