After all the talk of mental health lately we’ve After all the talk of mental health lately we’ve decided to unplug from social media for a few to connect with our family and work on some much needed projects for you! 

I encourage you to take time to look at all of our previous posts and educational information.

🔥There is a wealth of knowledge that we’ve shared over the last two years…Check our stories for our favorites!

⚡️If you need to reach us for any reason please email info@ruggedsoftball.com

🥎See you soon

Understanding developmental appropriateness starts with understanding basic Human Growth and Development.

This is the same athlete…exactly 6 years apart! This is the same athlete…exactly 6 years apart! (To the day!) How cool!?!?

She’s only about 5’3” and a petite frame. (I’ll let her reveal herself if she chooses.)

Speed development/pitching development is a marathon, not a sprint. 

Our goal is NOT to peak early! (We actually caution many of our athletes who have high achieving metrics at a very young age.)

Our goal is development over time, through a steady and consistent process. 

Progress is not and was not linear here. 

Work the process and things will come together better than you’ve ever imagined in due time.

A huge huge huge congrats to Kassy Stefanski on he A huge huge huge congrats to Kassy Stefanski on her signing with Ramapo College yesterday. 

We’ve been together for about 5 years and this is is by and far one of the most well studied, knowledgeable pitchers I have coached.

Always underestimated, but can compete with and beat the best of them! 

Kassy has big league movement and could have played at any level she chose, but she chose the best fit for her and I’m so proud of her for that. 

She’s going to dominate at the next level and I can’t wait to watch! 

Congrats Kassy 🔥🔥🔥

I’m not going to stop sharing or spreading this I’m not going to stop sharing or spreading this message. 

Hard work and balanced fun HAVE to co-exist in order to be successful! HAVE TO!

Stop using results based motivation and results based affection.

We love you not because of your performance, but because of who you are as a person! 

We love you despite not reaching that goal, or making that play, or getting the W!

We love you despite having a rough performance and not feeling 100% yourself!

We love you when you win and when you fail!

Posted @withregram • @victoriagarrick The mental health crisis facing student-athletes is extremely complex and in desperate need of a change up. It is deeply-rooted in sports culture, perpetuated by the unrealistic demands and pressures of the SA environment, and despite great strides over the past few years, too often… fatal.

I delivered this TEDxTalk in 2017 (5 years ago) after experiencing just two seasons at the Division I level. Today, we still continue to see tragic headlines remembering student-athletes we never should have lost. My heart goes out to those who are mourning. I too, feel helpless today. 🤍

Please consider donating to the non-profit I founded @thehiddenopponent, or our great partners @morgansmessage @hilinskishope, or any other student-athlete charity you’d like to stand behind, we greatly appreciate it.

And if you are a current student-athlete who is struggling, PLEASEEE PLEASE reach out for help and let someone in. There is light at the end of the tunnel!! TRUST! 🙏
This is a very very important read. We need to d This is a very very important read. 

We need to do better for our athletes…I’ve been standing on that platform for a LONG time. 

You can be elite, practice well, be dedicated, work towards goals… and still maintain a healthy balance! 

I’ve said it before… The grind needs to have boundaries. Kids need space to enjoy what they are doing without the pressure to achieve and perform….

Posted @withregram • @sdday35 Sports has literally always been a part of my life. Student-athletes are so close to my heart. As a parent, as a coach and a friend, this has to stop. 

We have to do better.
