"Coach Al is a coach on my 10u team, he helped me with my swing and helped me gain confidence in the box, he showed me how to stay calm and always have an approach before stepping in, he also taught me what to do with two strikes and what adjustments I can make to allow me to better see the ball in and battle in the box. Overall I love his style and teaching and I’m thankful for his help.
