They are called upon to be warriors.\n\nWi th all the skills you have to master … and the physical challenges you f ace … you're practically the baseball version of a Navy SEAL out there.\ n\nYou’ve got pitch calling\, receiving\, blocking\, throwing out base-s tealers\, backing up first base on ground balls\, tags at the plate\, pick off throws\, pop flys in foul territory and near the dugout\, and much mor e.\n\nYou have to know your pitcher\, sense their problems\, walk out and calm them down like a psychiatrist ... and all those jobs are rolled into one hot\, sweaty\, PUNISHING position.\n\nNobody understands or appreciate s everything you do as a catcher\, except maybe a few enlightened pitchers and ex -catchers . It's a lonely position in which you are involved in al most every single play and when the pressure is on\, the outcome of the ga me often itself hangs on the decisions you make.\n\nThey can change pitche rs two or three times an inning ... change infielders or outfielders ... b ut rarely if ever do they change catchers. Think about that ...\nYou're Th e Most Difficult Position Player To Replace\, Because You Play The Most De manding Position!\nSo\, it’s about time somebody designed a training eve nt to cover ALL the skills you need to excel at your position.\n\nThat tim e is now. That event is The Elite Catchers Boot Camp. And you’re invited .\n\nHere's why this is important: Elite performance requires elite coachi ng. It's as simple as that.\n\nThe instructors and coaches you surround yo urself with will largely determine how far you go as a catcher. That's why I've assembled catching coaches from Professional Baseball including the Major Leagues to give you ...\nThe Missing Pieces To The Catching Puzzle\n You see\, when most people think about catching\, they think only about re ceiving\, blocking\, and throwing ... and those are all incredibly importa nt. But often it's the other essentials -- the little things that add up t o BIG improvements -- that you must master if you want to reach the next l evel as a catcher.\n\nAt this one-of-a-kind\, 3-day Elite Catchers Boot Ca mp\, you get hands-on training in these essentials:\n\nElite-Level Receivi ng - Session 1 (Fastball)\nElite-Level Receiving - Session 2 (Secondary)\n Elite-Level Blocking Techniques: 2 sessions\nElements to a Sub 2.0 Pop Tim e - Session 1 (Footwork\, transfer\, velocity &\; command)\nElements to a Sub 2.0 Pop Time - Session 2 (Drills to improve)\nMobility and Flexibil ity\nArm Prep and Arm Care (including a personal video analysis)\nBut that 's not enough. You could read about pro-level catching techniques or see t hem in a YouTube video.\n\nWhat makes this Boot Camp so valuable to you ar e the elite-level coaches who are working with YOU personally.\n\nWith exp erience playing and coaching at the highest levels of baseball\, including the Major Leagues\, you get access to catching secrets and shortcuts you won't find anywhere else.\n\n \;\nHere's A Quick Look At Who's Coachin g And Mentoring You:\n \;\n\nGreg Brown: Co-owner - Florida Baseball R anch®. Former Chicago Cubs Hitting coach and former head coach at Nova So utheastern University. He's often referred to as the "Dean" of college cat ching instructors in America\, coaching 2 Rawlings Gold Glove recipients a t catcher\, including one of our instructors\, Garrett Wolforth! With 15 y ears of experience developing elite players\, Brown has seen 35 of his pla yers sign pro contracts since 2011. Any young catcher who had the opportun ity to listen to and work personally with Brownie would never forget that experience.\n\nEddy Rodriguez: Co-owner - Florida Baseball Ranch®. Former Minor League Field Coordinator for the New York Mets\, Former Major Leagu e Catching Coach for the Miami Marlins and former catcher with the San Die go Padres. His family defected from Cuba on his father's fishing boat when he was 7 years old\, nearly dying on the journey. You'd better believe Ed dy can make you tougher and better when it comes to catching!\n\nJosh Paul : Former MLB catcher\, catching coordinator and Major League Bench Coach. With 10+ years of experience at the MLB level as both a player and coach\, Paul brings a wealth of on-field experience and insight to his coaching a nd training process. His expertise extends beyond the field as an editor o f the Florida Baseball Ranch® catching manual. His dedication to player d evelopment and his comprehensive understanding of catching make him an inv aluable resource for aspiring and experience catchers alike.\n\nGarrett Wo lforth: Former professional catcher. Garrett has been exposed to our throw ing process for his entire life at the Texas Baseball Ranch®\, which may explain how he set a PG Record at the 2014 National Underclass All-America n Games of 89 mph to second base and 1.75 pop time that remain the best ev er at the event. Data is everywhere in baseball today and although in its infancy\, catchers are also being assessed by data at the professional lev el.  In Garrett’s first full year of catching\, he rated out a 107.5 on a scale where 100 is average professional catcher\, which boded very well for his training and off-season work. The reports also indicated to him n ot only where he was very good but where he personally needed to improve. You’ll love learning from his experience.\n\nMichael Trautwein: AAA catc her for the Cincinnati Reds. "Trauty" grew up outside of Atlanta\, GA and played his college baseball at the University of Michigan. He was drafted in the 13th round by the Reds in 2021 and quickly moved up levels due to h is defensive skill and on-field abilities to manage pitchers . In 2024\, h e was selected to participate in the prestigious MLB Fall League. Trauty h as an incredible energy and passion for the game which he loves sharing wi th younger players.\n\nHere's a sample of a True Media heat map. Red indic ates where the catcher did well and blue where he underachieved. During th e camp you will get an understanding along with specific training on how t o improve receiving to all areas of the zone.\n\n\n\nClick HERE to Registe r NOW\n \;\nHere's A Sample Of What You'll Discover …\n \;\n\n\n \n[embed]https://vimeo.com/1078051622/6435bd8116?ts=0&share=copy[/embed]\n \n\n\nFormer professional catcher\, Greg Brown\, teaches receiving skills -- and makes it simple!\n \;\n\n\n\n\nCoach Eddy Rodriguez teaching ma jor league blocking techniques\n\n\n\nGarrett Wolforth teaching a connecte d and efficient catcher's throw during the video analysis.\n\n\n\n \;\ nMeet Your Coaches And Instructors\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGreg Brown\nFlorida Baseba ll Ranch®\n\n\nEddy Rodriguez\nFlorida Baseball Ranch®\n\n\n \;\n\n\ n\nGarrett Wolforth\nTexas Baseball Ranch®\n\n\nRon Wolforth\nCEO\, Texas Baseball Ranch®\n\n\n\n\nJosh Paul\nFlorida Baseball Ranch®\n\n\n\nMich ael Trautwein\nCincinnati Reds\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n \;\nWhy Is This A "Must-Attend" Event?\nThis Elite Catchers Boot Camp is for you if ...\n\n You have a love for baseball and catching\n You are persistent\n You ha ve a burning desire to improve\n You are not afraid of hard work\n You h ave parents who are supportive\, think you have great potential but know y ou are missing a few things and want to get you in front of the best of th e best\n You've tried other training systems and just haven't made the im provements you expected\n\nNow\, you may be wondering ...\n"Am I Elite Eno ugh For This?"\nTo us\, 'elite' refers to a mindset and not a skill set. I f you love catching -- TRULY love catching -- you are to us 'elite'.
