A must-listen for players, parents, and coaches who want to better understand the evaluation process at the highest level.

Confidence isn’t something players are born with — it’s something coaches can help them build. In this episode, Adam Young and Josh Riley break down practical ways to develop real, lasting confidence in youth baseball players. From creating pressure-ready practices to using failure as a teaching tool, they share coaching strategies that go beyond the pep talk and help players believe in themselves when it counts.

In this episode, Adam Young and Josh Riley are joined by strength and conditioning coach Tanner Lawrence to dive into what actually matters when training baseball players. They discuss how to build strength that shows up in-game—on the mound, at the plate, and in the field—while avoiding common training mistakes that don't translate. From age-appropriate progressions to balancing power, mobility, and injury prevention, Tanner shares practical advice for coaches, parents, and players looking to take their physical development to the next level.
