Did you know 70% of kids quit playing baseball or softball after their 12-year-old season?

• 35% quit because of their coach.
• 25% quit because of their parent(s).
• 10% quit because of their ability.

By attending our clinics, you will learn how to prevent yourself from being one of those statistics.

Rijo Athletics offers a clinic for baseball and softball coaches each year. This has become a must-attend event for coaches in the Pacific Northwest. José Rijo-Berger and his staff conduct the clinics, which include live demonstrations of drills and center on the following:

The Coach’s Role

• Explain, describe, evaluate, encourage, correct and review.
• Teach skills while instilling a lifelong love of the game.
• Set the stage for success with your organization and attitude.
• Utilize your assistant coaches and parent volunteers effectively.
• Promote teamwork at every opportunity.
• Develop a free flow of information to and from the players.
• Partner with your players to establish a good workplace.

Effective Drills

• Find, study, and adapt time-tested drills to fit the team’s needs and improve skills.
• Make drills more productive to produce better game results
• Use well-executed drills that build mental toughness and teamwork.
• Learn to develop drills on the spot to help players with unusual challenges.
• Repeat drills to make skills routine: “Perfect practice makes perfect performance.”
• Consider player safety at all times.

We also allow time for questions and idea-sharing. It’s a great opportunity to hear what really works for other coaches facing the same challenges.

Those who attend will have a chance to win two free hours of instruction, which can be used for a player on your team.  Additionally, each coach will receive a voucher good for a free one-hour team evaluation. You’ll also have an opportunity to purchase the Rijo illustrated “Coaching Quick- Start Guide” and DVD.

(Due to high demand and over-capacity attendance, space is limited and the clinic fills up fast. Carpooling is highly recommended.)

Cost of clinic: $20

Reservation is required.
