Driveline Program

2023/2024 Driveline/High Intensity Throwing Program for 12-18U Baseball Players

Looking for a serious arm development program? Look no further than this high-performance Driveline program. 

What is it? This program is designed for serious pitchers that want to throw harder and develop more efficient pitching mechanics. It is driven by data, and you must put the work in to see results. 

How to get results? You must come with a good work ethic, compete your tail off, and be strong and mobile. If you put the work in everyday you will see results. Pitchers who do this and take care of their bodies have long careers. Our program is designed to help athletes do all of these things better. 
*Coaches reserve the right to ask any player who is not serious about this program, and is becoming a distraction to other players, to leave practice. If this becomes repetitive, we will cancel the player's program registration. 

What is this program all about? This program uses weighted balls, max effort and submaximal throwing, and lots of warm-up and recovery to train pitchers to succeed at the next level. Throughout your career your goals as a pitcher change. This Driveline protocol changes right along with you. Ready for velocity training that works? Get ready to work!!

This is for serious players that want to take advantage of this off season to take care of their arm, add more velocity and strength. 

The program is run by Erick Nelson & Ryan Masui

Academy Member, Marko Sipila, completed the Driveline Program at Hit Dawg last winter and increased his Velocity to 93 MPH! We had more than eight Hit Dawg players see personal record velocity gains by the end of our program! It is amazing to see the development and incredible success so many of our players are having after working with Erick.

"Great coaches who know what they are doing and are there to support you at anytime. If you put in the effort, the progress will show." ~Marko Sipila
