Welcome to Jimmy Dyson's A League of our Own Pitching School
Jimmy is one of the few Pitching Instructors that has years of experience in Performance and Result Technology. Pitching Instructors may video but will they do a voiceover while drawing lines and send the video to the student? The answer is 99% will not. Ask Jimmy why they will not send videos out. Jimmy has and can. We also can use three types of Measurement devices to gather information on spin rates and movement and compare to our succesful college pitchers . You do not need high spin rates or pitch 60 MPH to pitch college softball! If you are interested in our Performance - Result type of teaching contact us or signup on the scheduler.
"MAKE IT DANCE' this is what the guys used to say to me when I Pitched and
this is what I tell my PITCHERS "MAKE IT DANCE"! Make the ball move!
There is so much more than throwing the Ball...
We teach the Student how to Pitch...

*What is the number one thing that will catch a college
coaches eye in a game?
(A) Swings and misses and Strikeouts.
*How does a pitcher grow one inch
and gain one pound and pickup 10 MPH in one year at 12 years old
Or a pitcher pickup 5 MPH in 9 months? (A) Sequencing her mechanics, muscle maturity
and unlocking her Internal speed. Ask me in the Academy
what is the average speed gain a year for High School Pitchers
*Why do some pitchers have higher spin rates than others? (A) Ask me in the Academy
*What is the Main Pitching Stats that I use when I talk to a college coach?

We are one of the few Pitching Instructors to use the "state of the art" Pitching
Metrics Machine (Rapsodo) on the west coast.
This MACHINE is a Game Changer in the development of a softball Pitcher. With decades of videoing, Rev Fire and radar gun data in tandem with our "Rapsodo Metrics Maching" we will have the ability to develop pitchers in a way that very few instructors will have. This is Old School and New School coming together.
