Do you know those hitters who hit bombs during front toss but struggle to hit well in games, especially against quality pitching?
Why? Because power and a pretty swing alone donโt equate to success during a game. Mindset, approach, situations, pitchersโs strengths, etc all factor in to on field success at the plate.
The same can be said for pitching.
Speed and spin alone do not equate to success in the game.
Pitchers, are you training for functionality in a game? Are you training yourself for the ability to function and succeed in competitive performance?

How much time do you invest in growing your game outside of the physical aspects?
Most players and coaches are all working to get to the top of the mountain. What are you doing for your game to help get you there? How does your work set you apart from your competition? What gives you the competitive edge?

Goals motivate us, keep us focused on the path ahead, and can serve as a reminder of our purpose during softballโs toughest moments.
Understand the different types of goals.
1. ๐๐ช๐ฉ๐๐ค๐ข๐ ๐๐ค๐๐ก๐จ: Targets for performance that focus on the end result. Ex: Play in college or make varsity.
2. ๐๐๐ง๐๐ค๐ง๐ข๐๐ฃ๐๐ ๐๐ค๐๐ก๐จ: Targets for performance that focus on improving some aspect of performance. Ex: Improve on my first pitch strikes or make better adjustments.
3. ๐๐ง๐ค๐๐๐จ๐จ ๐๐ค๐๐ก๐จ: Targets for performance that focus on the quality of movement production. Ex: Breathe, apply my routine consistently or chart rings 3x per week.
๐ง๐ต๐ถ๐ ๐๐ฝ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ ๐ถ๐ ๐ผ๐๐๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐ฒ ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ฒ๐ฑ. Softball places a lot of weight on the outcome, because the outcome is the glamorous part of the game; homeruns, no-hitters, throwing hard and championships. Now throw social media into the mix and itโs near impossible to escape. Outcomes are tangible measurements of success; trophies, rankings, statistics or numbers on a radar gun.
Itโs the ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐๐๐ฌ๐ฌ, however, that sits at the base of the pyramid; the foundation from which we build all other success.
These ๐๐๐ง๐ ๐ classes are about the ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐๐๐ฌ๐ฌ. Itโs not the glamorous stuff we work on. Itโs the breathing, routine, adjustments, mindset and ability to tap into our trained voice in the gameโs toughest moments that will give our ๐๐๐ง๐ ๐ pitchers the competitive edge.
Outcome goals are great & motivate us. Performance goals help keep us intentional on the mound. But itโs committing to quality within the ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐๐๐ฌ๐ฌ that will allow us to ultimately attain both our performance & outcome goals in the end.
What are your goals for 2022?
Our ๐๐๐ง๐ ๐ girls made some great ones in class this week!
