Meet Your Coach

I’m Coach Ballgame.
I’ve spent the last 20 years in the trenches of youth sports, building a coaching style rooted in joy, connection, and character.

My Mission:
To flip the script on toxic sports culture and build something better — where kids fall in love with the game and stay in love with it.


“Joy, connection, and character — that’s how kids fall in love with the game.”


Why listen to me over Google…
or the guy yelling from the bleachers?

Because coaching kids can feel like herding cats with baseball gloves:

❌ Kids running everywhere

❌ Nobody paying attention

❌ You counting down the minutes

❌ You questioning every life decision that led you to coach

I’ve been there.
I’ve made the mistakes — so you don’t have to.

That’s why I created Coach Ballgame University:
A home base for coaches who want to do things differently.

This isn’t about rigid drills or coaching by volume.
It’s about building a culture kids love, parents respect, and you actually enjoy being part of.

Inside CBU you’ll find four core programs…each powerful on its own, unstoppable together.

  • "Coming into this course, I had already abandoned the win-at-all-cost mentality and was on board with instilling fundamentals and joy for the game. So that messaging was preaching to the choir. What I needed was some encouragement and additional practical approaches to implement that philosophy. HOLY MOLY, did this course deliver. I feel pumped and ready to coach next spring with my big 3. I want the kids to…Learn strong fundamentals; Have fun so they come back next season; and make some lifelong friends. Thanks, Coaches. Atta Boys!"
