SOFTBALL AND BASEBALL CONDITIONING

Darran Hall’s Speed, Agility and Strength Training Workout

Who: Spring Sport Athletes to prepare their bodies to perform at a higher level!

When: Workouts will be offered starting November 16th and through Thanksgiving Break if you son or daughter wants to attend. They will love them!

Official Workouts begin:

-Monday, November 30 from 3:00-4:00 at High School Football Field (to the side of the field) and every Monday following.

-Wednesday, December 2 from 2:30-3:30 at High School Football Field, and every Wednesday following.

-Saturday, December 5th from 9:00-10:00 am at High School Football Field and every Saturday following.

Cost is $10 per session or $20 per week, getting third workout free. (Prefer checks at the beginning of the month payable to Darran Hall so kids don’t need to worry about remembering their money, and they will commit to the workout having already paid for it.)

Why: Darran Hall will help your son or daughter build confidence, core strength, agility, and speed. He will help reduce injuries, improve their ability to cover more ground on the baseball/softball field, improve core strength for hitting and throwing, and improve focus by being in the best shape of their lives! This will also help the coaches spend less time on conditioning and more time on fundamentals. Darran’s workouts will bond the baseball and softball players with mutual respect and help them see with hard work brings rewards. The kids will be able to feel the fruits of their labor during their season, and the workouts are being offered right after school, to make it easier to fit into their schedules. Softball and Baseball are the first teams we are trying this on, so we encourage you to motivate your kids to participate.

WHO IS DARRAN HALL?

Darran graduated from Lincoln High School and was a 7th round draft pick in baseball for the Cincinnati Reds. He played 3 years for the Reds organization and decided to go back to school and get his degree.

After leaving football he received his Masters in Exercise Science and was inducted to the San Diego Hall of Fame.

Darran trains kids at Mt. Carmel, Poway, West View, and Rancho Bernardo. He is VERY EXCITED to work with our kids here in Coronado. He is an excellent role model, humble, motivating, and can demonstrate the exercises like a gazelle!! He will gently push your kids and take them to an athletic level they have never seen.
