Focused on the positive development of young men and women through athletics and competition, Dugout Captain promotes a philosophy of process over results. All content focuses on a subtle and consistent message of development (rather than winning), providing a much-needed and healthy perspective to the growing industry of youth sports.  Dugout Captain is built on a passion for serving the volunteer youth coach, and the ultimate goal of improving the athlete-family experience. With an improved experience, athletes play longer, providing the game a bigger, more significant, opportunity to teach life’s lessons… the unique way that only sports can!Dugout Captain’s integrated, comprehensive toolbox includes drill videos, ready-made practice plans, development curriculum, and proprietary Virtual Clipboard technology (patent-pending). The Clipboard is the unique tool that allows users to apply instructional content to the field. Build or borrow a practice plan onto the clipboard, then share an interactive plan to assistant coaches and team families. Share a homework drill with a struggling team member, or use DC’s Skill Training Lessons to train your own athlete in hitting, pitching, infield, or the catching position. Show less
