Karen Ball’s Pitching Academy is Pennsylvania's best source for softball pitching instruction. The program will develop the pitchers mechanics, off-speed pitches, as well as the mental aspects of pitching. Whether you are a novice or a professional pitcher, the mission of the KB Academy is simple: "Develop student softball pitchers to their fullest potential by providing them the right mental and physical skills to always succeed."

Instructional Methods:

  1. Start with the fundamentals of pitching
  2. Give student pitchers a warm-up routine. 
  3. Each pitcher is given a set of pitching phases to do as a warm-up.  Each one of these phases is a part of their motion. 
  4. Work on mechanics first, then speed & control.  
  5. Before a student pitcher can move on to different pitches, the pitcher must have their own control down. 
  6. Maintain drills to work on their accuracy and speed.
It is vitally important that student pitchers pitchers are completely trained with the mental aspects of the game.
