We develop our athletes foundation on our 5 pillar process: Strength & Conditioning, Skill Development, Recovery & Injury Prevention, Human Performance and Player Pathway. Our comprehensive approach includes an integration of Academic Excellence through our School of Champions partnership with Liberty university. It allows us to impact our student-athletes on and off the field. We are more than a facility, we are a family!
THE DEN JUST GOT BETTER
Elevate Your Game
We’ve officially partnered with Paradigm Player Development Solutions to bring a whole new level of precision and insight for our members.
What does that mean?
It means every pitcher throwing here will now get:
-
A Post-Pen Report breaking down execution and intent.
-
An Internal Arsenal Report showing how each pitch stacks up.
-
Stuff+ and Command Grading based on intended zones — not just velo.
-
Data split between righties and lefties, giving you a clear roadmap for where your stuff plays best.
This gives our staff the ability to make smarter pitch design decisions — not based on guesswork or radar guns, but on real data. Whether it's adding vertical break, shifting shape, or refining command, we now have the tools to objectify the process and develop pitches that win.
Elite Training Facility
Our Pillars
Skill Development
Skill Development is mostly the main focal point for training facilities. As we too certainly want to see our pitchers move more efficiently and performance at their highest level, we also know it takes much more to development than just throwing a baseball.
Strength Conditioning
We emphasize strength and conditioning to ensure that our athletes are in peak physical form and able to make the proper adjustments needed in their deliveries. Our custom workouts and training regimens, based upon comprehensive movement assessments, are tailored to enhance performance and prevent injuries.
Recovery
When it comes to the ways we mitigate injuries most at The Den we rely heavily on our pro level recovery modalities. Things like Saunas, Cold Tubs, Compression therapy, Red Light Therapy, and even our own world renowned PT's. We want to take care of all the needs our guys have during their seasons!
Mental Performance
Agility is key to dominating the game. Our agility drills are designed to improve footwork, lateral movement, and overall coordination, giving our players a competitive edge.
Player Pathway
We understand the path from where you are and where you want to be is filled with unknowns and overwhelm. At The Den we have coaches and parents who have walked in the shoes that you will soon one day. We want to have every resource needed for our players and families to have all the answers and guidance they need to make informed decisions for their future. We have that at The Den with Coach Walter Beede.
Academic Excellence
Sports are important for many reasons. We have seen first hand the way Baseball can be a vehicle for impact across many facets of our lives. We want our athletes and families to know that we desire for them to leverage their athletic ability to get a great education and prioritize their academics daily. We offer solutions for parents wanting a more flexible schooling schedule to provide a more heightened focus on their development as an athlete.
