Baseball Skills 20L is designed to introduce students to intermediate baseball concepts. Students will apply the rules of baseball and learn how baseball statistics and metrics are measured and how they can be used strategically and support athlete improvement.
Students will examine the skill sets and training necessary for all positions and learn advanced skill techniques for hitting, throwing and baserunning as well as advanced offensive and defensive game strategies.
They will explore strategies for managing nutrition and mental wellness in-season and off-season and extend their learning in leadership, relationships and community outreach to make the game of baseball more enjoyable for all those involved. They will continue to pursue concepts related to fair play and integrity and will research post-secondary options to play baseball.
Students will benefit from access to a baseball coach or another knowledgeable mentor that provide feedback to them, but this is not required.
The course includes videos and resources created in partnership with Going Yard Baseball Academy based in Saskatoon.
