Testimonials
“I highly recommend OBSA to any young man that wants to gain velocity on pitching, catching, or fielding. Eric has the latest state of the art equipment to diagnose each player. With Eric’s expertise and the equipment involved, this is a no brainer. If a player wants to take his performance to the next level and learn from someone who has played pro ball and coached MLB players. The knowledge he brings to the table doesn’t justify his prices. Eric and his staff are VERY knowlegeable, personable, and they are there for each and every player to get better, not just the money. This is the ONLY place I would recommend!”

Training Programs
All of our programs focus on maximizing each athlete’s skills and ability. Our programs are designed to promote greater movement patterns, enhance strength and flexibility while maximizing specific skills to become a complete baseball player.
In addition to our standard memberships, we also offer Arm Care, Velo Training, private instruction, and Lane Reservations.
Remote Pitching Instruction
Remote pitching programs are for pitchers who want to enhance their mechanics, throwing patterns, velocity and command. We also work on the "Mental Game".
The remote pitching programs will give the pitchers a full activation routine, throwing program (based on time of season), full recovery routine and collaborative instructional sessions to help with drills and corrective measures. We will also work on pitch design and building an arsenal.
Sessions will be done weekly via online software for collaborative instruction. Online meetings can occur via zoom, face time or our own instructional software.

Players will learn to generate more power, at bat IQ, pitch recognition, and improving contact. We create confident and effective hitters.
Strength Training
Building a better baseball body through strength, mobility and flexibility training. We teach proper lifting technique, functional strength and baseball specific lifting programs to help athletes reach their full potential. Emphasis is placed on age, ability and skill level of each athlete. We also offer speed and agility training.
