Greetings from CoachDeck!

In this issue: Is it possible you've been giving (or getting) bad hitting advice? New York Mets Hitting Coach Dave Hudgens has provided us with an article meant to address two of the most commonly-taught fallacies. Brian Gotta's "The Coach is Treating My Child Unfairly!" takes a look at how we may not always be the best judge of fairness when it comes to our kids' sports. And John Ellsworth's "Three Tips to Eliminate Distractions on the Field" will help your athlete be more focused and successful.
