A letter from Coach Ryan.................................
I welcome you to find any other camp in the country that will get you closer to playing at next level more than the Ultimate Baseball Boot Camp for players. We believe that "development" is not a word that should be thrown around lightly. We believe at Fastball USA that development is un-disputed improvement. Improvement and results are exactly what we specialize in.
I have no doubt that everyone of our students can accomplish throwing & hitting a baseball 90MPH or even more. No Doubt!
So why are you not doing it yet? What steps are you taking to work towards this goal? Do you know and understand why this goal is important?
Throwing and hitting a baseball 90MPH or more is a major source of power that can happen with the right training and the right environment. It is what seperates the average baseball player from the exceptional baseball player. It is what opens doors of opportunities to play at the highest levels. If your son has the burning desire to play at the next level and he is not afraid to work, then the Ultimate Baseball Boot camp is for you!
For the first time ever I have put together The Ultimate Baseball Boot Camp To give players from all over the country, the entire midwest, and the entire Chicago area an opportunity to experience the entire Fastball USA System.
Never before have we offered our entire training program that has helped produce 33 hitters who have hit ball exits speeds surpassing 90mph AND a system that has help produce 21 pitchers that have thrown the baseball 90mph or more. The same system that has also helped 3 players exceed 100mph of hitting speed or throwing speed.
The Ultimate Baseball Boot Camp Will Include For the First Time Ever! All Of This in One Camp!!!! > Explosive Hitting System - The System for hitting harder and farther! > Black Belt Training System For Pitchers/Throwing- Velocity/Command Go Hand in hand > Web Gem Defensive Training System - Gold Glove Training > Master The Mindset Training With Specialist - Adam Kotowski > Strength Training Specific To Baseball Not to body building. (train for your sport) > Quickness,Speed, Specific To Baseball not to basketball players. (train for your sport)
Your opportunity to attend a camp that gets results like this...............
33 Athletes in the past 18 months have reached Ball Exit Speeds of 90mph or more 21 Athletes in the past 18 months have thrown a baseball 90mph or more
2 Athletes have reached over 100mph of Ball Exit Speed 1 Athlete has even reached 102mph of Throwing Speed!
6 Six times in the past seven years a Fastball USA student has been drafted Several more are playing Division I baseball and other levels of baseball around the country.
In my opinion everyone can throw and hit a baseball 90mph. Few have a system that gives them increasing improvement. Few have exact short term and long term goals as a part of their training development.
Most simply "Hope" that they get better, improve, or "Hope" they reach their dreams. "HOPE" is not a plan! If it is then don't plan on acheiving your goals.

2010, 14th Round Draft Pick Of The Kansas City Royals, Mike Giovenco, explains his experience with working with Mike Ryan/Fastball USA.
|
| Hey Mike,
Just wanted to let you know that we do nearly all the same arm care here as we did at fastball. We do numerous variations of all of the arm care on an everyday basis, and also we do ALOT of the flexibiltiy and pre workout warmups that we did at fastball. Fastball USA pretty much prepared me for pro ball, and currently I have over 100 innings on my arm this year, and I have to thank you for teaching me the importance of arm care. In the past, my arm would usually be in pain around this time of year, and I would be experiencing "dead arm". But currently my velocity is still sitting in the 90-93 range and topping around 95mph. Once again, I just wanted to thank you for everything, and please continue to stress the importance of arm care, flexibiltiy, and good old fashioned hard work to the rest of the guys. Thanks, Mike Giovenco

Results Like This.... From Not Making The Varsity Team To Throwing 90MPH in 14 Months!!
Finding Focus...
Mitch Baker, a tall lanky kid with a dream. Plays Little League, Travel Ball and moves onto his High School freshman and sophomore teams. He has an above average fastball, smooth delivery and told lots of potential... then fails to make his varsity team his junior year. New coach, politics, lack of focus might have sunk him, but he took it upon himself to get better. He had to find his focus.
2010 Mitch goes in 100% to the teachings at Fastball. While missing Spring ball he attends FB 2-3 times a week.
Summertime he attends 2 large Midwest showcases posting the 1st and 3rd highest MPH times out of hundreds of 2011 prospects. Offers from colleges start to come in. Contacts through your organization start to develop. Coaches come out to Fastball to see Mitch work out.
2010 -2011 Mitch continues to work out posting 94 mph turn and burn and 86-88 off the mound. Senior Year he goes undefeated. 2011 Mitchell signs a Scholarship to a local school with strong baseball program. He hits 90 mph off the mound.
Mitch had a strong fall and is slated to play varsity ball his freshman season.
We are indebted to your program and look forward to seeing you during holiday breaks...to keep the focus.
The Baker Family

Fastball USA Student improves Ball Exit Speed from 72mph to 97mph
Improves 25MPH in 20 Months!
Coach,
I did not know what to call this but I think "Getting Results" is appropriate where my son Dominic is concerned. Dommo has a mathematics and science background so the marriage between our family and Fastball USA could not be have worked out better.
As a matter of fact, I think most of the kids that frequent the Fastball workouts and measurement nights must have the same love for math and science that Dommo has...
As somebody who records the hitting and throwing metrics of the boys, I have never seen so many kids compete as hard as these boys do and take the number I yell out to them as seriously as the kids at Fastball!
All the kids at the measurement nights are looking for that extra 2 or 3 MPH difference from the last metric night and I have seen every kid there not only raise their number from the time before, they raise their expectations for the next measurment night 30 days down the road!
One fateful August evening in 2009, my son and I went to Fastball USA on a referral from Steve Brandt as a place that serious kids should check out if they want to pursue a baseball career in earnest.
That was 20 months ago and Dommo loves fastball more today than he did the first time he stepped into the "Dojo"!
Dommo would like the opportunity to play baseball at the next level and he thinks Fastball USA is the only academy that feeds his hunger to progress in the manner he has and will continue to do so.
Here is his dramatic progression purely from a hitting perspective. In August 2009 Dommo was 5'10" and weighed 150 pounds. His bat speed was 73 MPH and his exit speed was 72 MPH.
In 20 months of intense training at Fastball he has gone from a skinny 14 year old boy to a very strong 16 year old man.
He is now 5'11.5" and weighs 168 pounds (all muscle) and I can honestly say the strength is all a bi-product of the black belt workouts at Fastball.
I am not talking bench and curl strength, Dommo quit lifting weights a year ago.
I am talking about functional core strength specific to that of major league baseball players.
His bat speed is now 97 MPH which matches his exit speed! To put this in its proper perspective, these numbers are the same as most major league ball players outweighing Dommo by 20 - 50 pounds.
Because I am not a scientist, I do not know how these metrics can be achieved, I just know when he goes to Fastball good things happen!
Mike - he likes the no nonsense personality of you and coach Steve.
In this world of establishments patronizing their clientele and sugar coating things where their kids are concerned, Fastball USA takes the exact opposite approach.
While this might not be for every family seeking a baseball academy, the families that frequent Fastball USA will have the best chance of their son or daughter playing at the next level no matter what that level is.
The DeMicco's will be there until you kick us out!
Thanks for all the hard work with my son.
Sincerely,
Dominic Demicco

The Ultimate Baseball Boot Camp can be a life altering baseball camp. You will learn what is possible, and benefit from our expert instructors and proven system that will improve and increase your chances of playing at the next level.
If you are currently doing what everyone else around you is doing, then I suggest you stop now. It's going to take an un-common approach if you plan on attaining great things. A common approach will take you as far as it takes everyone else. To quote Herb Brooks, "to be great you need to be un-common".
The Ultimate Baseball Boot Camp will show you exactly how our students have become un-common and have achieved tremendous results. It begins with your approach and mindset to training.
Our Entire Program Has Never Been Put Together For One Single Weekend Event:
Now You Can improve.... Defensive,Hitting,Throwing,Pitching,strength, quickness, and most importantly the mental game that will take your talent to another level.
Five of the past 7 years a Fastball USA student has been selected in the Major League Baseball Draft.
Just last week 3 more students signed to play Division I baseball
Now......................it's your turn!
Take Advantage of the Three Day Ultimate Baseball Boot Camp and receive results like this.......................
Improves from 84mph to 92mph! Only a sophomore Since joining the program, my turn and burn has increased from 84 mph to 92 mph in less than one year and my mound speed has improved from 83 to 87mph. The workouts greatly improve strength, speed, and explosiveness, more so than any other baseball program I have ever been in. I recommend that anyone who wants to improve any part of their baseball skills, whether it be pitching velocity, bat speed, etc, should join this program.
Robert Zerfas
Freshman Gains 14MPH in 2 Years Before coming to Fastball USA, I was a freshman throwing 72mph. As a kid I was taught to throw with good mechanics and never to just let it fly. But when I came to Fastball it was completely the opposite. Everything is focused on going as fast as you can, even if It means being out of control at first. I started training at the facility and I have seen major improvements in my game.
Freshman year I wasn't even in the starting rotation as a pitcher and when I did pitch I walked a lot of people. But after I trained for just one offseason I was the starting pitcher for our first conference game. I had improved my velocity to 80 mph off the mound in just one offseason. Then over this summer I continued to train with Fastball USA and I improved my velocity to 86 mph off a turn and burn and 82-83 off the mound. In about 2 years, I have gained 14 mph on my fastball because of the great training.
I would definitely recommend Fastball USA to anyone who wants to work hard and has goals of playing at the next level. It is a great way to specifically train for baseball and improve your game in the right way. Austin Foote

12 YEAR OLD HITS 12 HOME RUNS AND IMPROVES BALL EXIT SPEED READINGS FROM 56MPH TO 79MPH
Coach Ryan,
Neil was 11 yrs. old when he first visited Fastball for an analysis with Coach Ryan. After only one video analysis, coach suggested Neil make a minor adjustment to his arm movement. That minor adjustment resulted in immediate increased pitching velocity. With increased velocity and a new found confidence, Neil had an explosive 2010 season in which he pitched the championship game of the 11U CABA World Series finishing just south of a tight 3 - 2 game against the Ohio Glaciers.
Neil has been with Fastball now for over a year and has seen his exit speed increase from 56 mph to his personal best of 79 mph. This exit speed increase was immediately visible in his perfomance this past season. Neil lead his team with 12 homeruns including 2 grand slams at very crucial times during two of the biggest tournament games of the year. His stick helped to propel the team to the AABC Pee Wee Reese World Series in Toa Baja, Puerto Rico where he also hit a 3 run homer against the top ranked 12U pitcher in Puerto Rico.
Fastball has increased his bat exit speed and taught him how to protect his arm health and for that we have been extremely pleased. However, what we are most encouraged about is Fastball's attention to developing the whole child on and off the field. Neil has been mentored by his coaches and by older Fastball members like TJ, who unselfishly give their time when he tries to compete against them past 9:00 pm. They advise him about what he might expect in high school and they push him beyond his conceived limits. Fastball trains Neil to be a stronger and more healthy athlete physically but also mentally.
Being a part of Fastball and being around others, who are as passionate about baseball as he is, has brought about an even deeper commitment than he previously held and has been a major catalyst for his personal passion toward the game and for his own personal success in life.
Thank you Coach(es)!

32MPH INCREASE IN 1 YEAR ?
7th Grader Goes From hitting a ball 50mph to hitting a baseball 82mph in 1 YEAR!!! if that is not enough his throwing speed jumps from 48mph to 66mph in less than a year.
The way Mike and Steve bring the most out of the kids is amazing. . Jimmy was throwing around 48 mph. His bat speed and exit speed was around 50. On Nov. 7, 2011, Jimmy reached an exit speed of 82 mph. and a bat speed of 78. On Nov. 21, 2011, Jimmy reached an all time high of 66 mph throwing. These amazing increases could not have happened without the outstanding coaching staff at Fastball, especially Mike and Steve. Not only did they help build these increases, but they built his confidence as an athlete and as a person. As a parent and a coach, I could not be happier for my son. Thanks to Mike and Steve, and the rest of the staff at Fastball, jimmy not only has chance to succeed at baseball, but in life as well!
Thank you! Jimmys Dad
