Eric's Coaching Philosophy
My coaching philosophy is very simple; help young women to develop the skills they need to become successful in softball and in life. It is important that the program be about the girls, not the coach, and that we teach strong fundamentals. If we are successful building the character of these women, then success will happen on the field. A winning program is the result of hard work and strong confident players. The legacy that we create should be something that is special in the lives of these young ladies so that they want the same for their daughters. I would like this opportunity to bring sport back to where teaching the right values for life after sports is as important as being successful on the field.
