We train catchers in Southern California but offer a remote training app for catchers across the country and the world.
We have compiled a database of over 250 drills and exercises for catchers to train with. Please visit our website NextLevelCatchingAcademy.com (nextlevelcatchingacademy.com/...) to learn more about this great training tool for catchers anywhere in the world. Train from anywhere and at any time. The app prompts and assigns drills for blocking, throwing, throwing, as well as these tag plays, mobility (flexibility), footwork drills, and arm-care.
We are continuing to add content as the month progress. Our newest addition to the content is the exciting tag and bunt plays. Visit the website and subscribe to our "remote training" with the MaxOne app. Low cost, high value, and tons of opportunities to learn and grow.
If you're interested in our catching-specific training content, we have a mobile app we've created for catchers around the country (and world).
It allows you to take the quality instruction of NLCA camps and put them in your pocket, doing drills with your teammates or coaches.

Next Level Catching Academy fully understands the high demands of the position and the low opportunities that most catchers are given in a practice setting. We have received hundreds of requests for training videos and tutorials and although we have many videos on RU-vid, we went ahead to create a systematic workout plan for our catchers. This workout plan puts all the best training drills into one location for you and gives you video tutorials on how to implement them properly.
Our landing page for this remote training will have all the information needed for you to join this growing community. Visit us at NextLevelCatchingAcademy.com and learn more about this great program. Catchers can choose to receive the first week of training for free and can commit from there for any amount of time they desire. The commitment is 100% up to the individual, but while you wait to train, dozens of other catchers your age and in your area are training to level up. Our goal is simply to give catchers every opportunity to make gains and extend their level of impact and opportunities.
Join the community and put the work in!!!

I consider myself a good catching coach. But Next Level Catching Academy is fabulous. This old dog has learned many new things! I recommend Next Level Catching Academy videos to ALL catching students!

U should really have a camp in Louisiana we have a lot of talented catchers down here that would love to participate in this camp

@NextLevelCatchingAcademy 8 лет назад

Really wish we could and hope to set ourselves up to travel within a couple years. We get tons of emails like this.

@millerturq4418 7 лет назад

with an actual pitcher is it possible to work the pitch from outside in to the plate when the pitcher isn't as accurate? I understand doing it when you are calling an outside, inside or low pitch, but since it's pre pitch it won't work unless he hits his spot right?

@joeyurko9999 7 лет назад

So, the glove hand is actually going further outside than the incoming pitch, then coming back to receive it? And it's the glove side elbow that brings it back, correct?

@alligatorarms9086 8 лет назад

Another question: When would you choose to stick that low outside(on a RH hitter) fastball vs when would you choose to "cradle" as you called it here, that pitch that you are working on in the first receiving drill? Thanks again!

@NextLevelCatchingAcademy 8 лет назад

It really just takes feel and instincts for the catcher to make that decision. Much of receiving depends on how the umpire prefers to see pitches and call strikes, so making early observations on what he calls and doesn't call is super important. We want to be great at all the different receiving techniques so that we can use whichever technique wins more strikes.

@alligatorarms9086 8 лет назад

I would like to ask about the angled receiving drill at about the 8:45 mark...is the machine actually coming in from an angle through the LH batters box or is the catcher just at an angle and the ball coming straight in from the regular direction? I can't quite tell and either way what is this teaching point of this? Thank you and great work again.

@NextLevelCatchingAcademy 8 лет назад

we just turned the catcher, but either method would work.

@alligatorarms9086 8 лет назад

So, what do we learn catching this way, on an angle that we don't learn from more straight on? Thanks!

@jakehinckley1184 5 лет назад

Does knowing if it's going to be an outside pitch come to you over time?

@NextLevelCatchingAcademy 2 года назад

Absolutely... Catchers are calling each pitch and location should be given at levels above 12u competition.

I’d like to know how far these coaches went in baseball

@NextLevelCatchingAcademy 6 лет назад

All of our coaches played college baseball, most were all-conference at mid level colleges. Three of us played professionally, but even more important than that is our ability to teach and challenge catchers. Even some well-known catchers that played professionally can catch, but not necessarily teach effectively to the teenage or college catcher.

Next Level Catching Academy hi is this something anyone can do if it is do you still do it

@@NextLevelCatchingAcademy I have been teaching young players catching for about 2 years now my son was obviously my first student and at only 5' tall has made the varsity team as a freshman because of the drills we have learned from your channel. Since then, I have taken a small group of young men and have taught them to be defensive catchers. I have zero catching experience actually I played goalie in college. A coach is someone that can learn something and teach it to someone else, having experience helps but you are 100% right on the money just because you are a great player doesn't mean you can be a great coach. Thank you so much for your videos they have helped my son tremendously and also have helped me teach other young men to be proficient in the position.
