HITTING
Great Lakes Driveline hitting program is designed to help hitters become more consistent hitters while developing a better understanding of the kinetic chain and how to create force using our two force vectors. The formula is pretty straightforward - stronger athletes that swing more efficiently create higher exit velocities. Using data and research driven instruction, there's not a more comprehensive hitting program in the state.

PITCHING
There's no secret to playing college baseball; throw hard and hit it farther. With this understanding in mind, our Great Lakes pitching coaches Joe Zorn and Matt Doornink have created a program with the specific goal of increasing arm strength, velocity, and durability.
​
Our program is designed from a combination of velocity and biomechanical elements from top industry leaders such as Driveline, Texas Baseball Ranch, Top Velocity, Eric Cressey Sports Performance, and more.
​
Players will focus on movements/mechanics, strength, explosiveness, shoulder stability and metal preparation as well as have access to high end industry training tools such as Core Velocity Belt, Velopro Trainer, King of the Hill Ground Force Trainer, and more. Video analysis will also be heavily utilized to evaluate your athlete's biomechanical patterns to develop and individualized program to increase velocity.

FIELDING
Great Lakes defensive programs allow players to become a more polished fielder this off-season. With small group instruction and game like reps, preparing fielders for the speed of the game, meeting them where they're at and pushing them to the next level.
​
We will be running our defensive training mid-week. These will be broken up by position specific sessions, offered throughout the winter at the days/times listed below.
​
​
HIGH SCHOOL
INFIELD SESSIONS
Our Winter Infield Camps are designed for dedicated baseball and softball infielders looking to enhance their skills during the off-season. Held in a state-of-the-art indoor facility, this intensive camp offers personalized instruction in fielding techniques, footwork, and positioning from top-tier coaches. Participants will benefit from rigorous drills and one-on-one coaching to become the most dependable and agile infielders on the field.
​HIGH SCHOOL
CATCHING SESSIONS
Great Lakes Winter Catching Camps are designed to improve skills in what we consider the Big 3 skills of Catching. Receiving, Blocking, and Throwing. We will utilize a variety of different drills, training implements, and training styles to develop our Catchers in elite defensive catchers.
Along with defensive skill development, players will spend 30 minutes each night working on base running skills and strategies that make good players great.
PERFORMANCE
Great Lakes uses the High-Performance Model approach for training high school baseball players. Drawing from years of collegiate experience, our performance team works closely with all departments of our coaching staff to ensure that what we do in training translates to improvements on the field. We train like the game is played. Utilizing data to drive decision making and address individual weaknesses, our programs are tailored not only to the position but to the individual. Along with world class programming our athletes improve nutrition, recovery, and their mental game.
​
Our High School Programs are available to beginner and advanced athletes alike. Using baseline testing and advanced technology monitoring, our training is tailored to the athlete's experience level to ensure safe progressions year-round. Daily/weekly check-ins and feedback evaluate each athlete’s performance and improvements. Regular testing and assessments keep our athletes in the correct lane of training ensuring them the biggest results in the fastest time.
