Marlins Video Analysis
Overview

The Marlins program uses video analysis to help our players see how they can get better and to see what they are doing well.

The links on the tabs are to videos of athletes and coaches who have mastered their craft. They can serve as models when assessing player videos and getting better. Pick your own model videos, too. There are a bunch of them on the web.

Besides being very helpful, video analysis is a lot of fun!

This book is a must for any coach of youth baseball. Hell, it’s probably a must for a number of major leaguers as well! Gwynn offers some mind-boggling advice, such as not thinking of hitting the ball, but hitting *through* it. Along with this easy to understand science, you get some of the most terrific baseball photos published anywhere — clear images which capture both the power and beauty of hitters doing their thing.
