Ron Wolforth Pitching Camp
November 2011 Wolforth Camp


As a parent and a coach who is a former college and semi-pro pitcher I can say this.....  I learned more from this camp in three days then in my entire pitching career.  All pitching coaches and players who are passionate about pitching should attend this event.    Myself and my two sons will be back!


Jim Crimmins


Great Clinic!   I knew the older athletes would benefit from the Ron Wolforth clinic but to see my 10 year old enjoy, learn and develop over three days was fantastic.   Both the drills and the lecture portion of the clinic were beneficial and interesting for him.  Very inspirational!

Thanks for having Coach Wolforth at Fastball USA!

Steve Brandt



Coach spoke to 9 year olds to 19 year olds with equal importance.   This camp was a great blend of baseball training & the mental approach to baseball & life.   A division I pitcher & a 13 year old each walked away with game changing facts that will impact their future success.   Thank You! 

Connors Dad


This camp offers a view un-like what you will get at any other place offered.   The detail offered is also un-like you get anywhere else.   The best aspect of this camp is the explanation of the why and then applying theory into practical experience with the drills.

He will spend time detailing the famous backwward chaining throwing drills and the 7 Innings of Hell. He will take you through his incredible wake/up, warmup system and dynamic flexiblity, which is worth the price of addmission itself.

The newest concept using "connection balls" to assist in arm health durability, velocity, and command.    Key drills you will need to implement to have the similiar traits that you see in pitchers that have long term sustained success.

Testimonials:

“ This was another outstanding baseball clinic given by Ron Wolforth and  Fastball USA.   He continues to be a wealth of knowledge with new techniques that developes healthy pitchers. 

After this weekend Charlie is motivated to work hard, so he can achieve new highs for himself.  We have seen a lot this weekend that can help the physical aspects of pitching with proper warm up's like the Rugby’s and core drills.  We know these techniques are crucial to his performance as a pitcher.   Thanks again and we look forward to your next clinic.”

“This was a very valuable weekend.   This is my fourth year and I still get pumped when he comes.  I have seen leading with your hip before, but I have never felt it like I did this weekend .   This is the first time I felt the hip and pelvis loading when I threw. 

I highly recommend anyone that wants to become a better pitcher to attend this camp.   Coach Wolforth and the Fastball USA Coaching Staff are the most knowledgeable pitching coaches and are great, great teachers. “
 Scott Swiderek


 “This camp was extremely valuable!  Especially the drills that help improve throwing arm strength and speed.
 

I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to gain velocity.  Every is explained simply for everyone to understand. 

 I learned the importance of the hip rotation, pronation, and follow through.    Coach Wolforth is a great teacher and makes it fun and challenging for boys of all ages.  I will be participating in this camp for years to come and incorporating his techniques in my teams practices.

Joe Romano



“ This camp was un-like any pitching camp my son has ever participated in.   Everything about the camp is different.  Everything was unique, starting with the mental approach to the training, warm up, drills and throwing. 

For me as a parent I was looking for something different because the current camps and clinics my son has attended did not provide information for ability enhancement.   This is differencital from where he is now increasing his ability.

All feedback from other clinics has been wait til grows, gets older or wait until he gets bigger to throw harder or hit, swing harder.    Thanks for a great camp.

Mark Juaire



“ I got a ton out of the weekend with Ron Wolforth.  I learned exactly what was holding me back and how to break through the barriers.   I also learned what I had been doing wrong as it relates to stretching, warming up, which is a key part of the game.  

I recommend that others keep an open mind and attend the Wolforth clinic.  I extremely enjoyed Ron and his program and training with top notch players in a spectacular training facility like Fastball USA."


Andrew Hjellming

This is my fourth time attending a Ron Wolforth Camp at Fastball USA. 

The Wolforth  Camp helped me learn more about command  from Coaches Wolforths Oates Protocol and perspective.

The drills emphasized the importance of stability and how it effects control and velocity. 

This camp really emphasizes the importance of “intent” and the “mindset” in order to throw harder and along with pushing the envelope just like we do at Fastball USA.   I highly recommend this camp to other serious pitchers.

 

Carl Sugihara



Coach Mike,

 

 “ I wanted to let you know I got a lot of wisdom of pitching and working to become a better pitcher at the Wolforth Clinic.
Every year I have been to this camp there has been new and more material and workout sets to improve our velocity and control.   I really like the new Donley set and the new warm-up’s. 

I recommend this program to other serious pitchers because he shows you ways to become more explosive and more efficient with body movements.   This program has provided many spikes in pitchers performance and efficiency.  The Ron Wolforth pitching camp has been one of  the best additions to the Fastball USA baseball Academy.”
  

Jack Czeszewski
6 Time Camp Attendee!

 

 

I really got a lot out of this weekend.    We did way more than everyone else is doing so we get more than everyone else gets.    After a while we learn the new things and we think we “get it”.    Then, like this weekend, we are given new things and start our learning process again. 

 

Our muscles get used to things we already know.    Coach Wolforth does a great job at creating muscles confusion to help get you past being stuck. 

I learned all the different variables that effect velocity and the importance of the pronation arm care series.    The warm up is so detailed and is even narrowed down to the ankle which I never even though about.   We can never know enough and each Wolforth Camp we keep on learning. 

 

Thanks Coach Wolforth For another information packed weekend!


Jim Ryan



The Wolforth Clinic was an absolute great experience.   I learned more drills to increase my velocity and give me more functional strength.   If you or someone you know is thinking about attending this event, I highly recommend it because it will benefit velocity, control and overall performance. 

 

I loved the discussion and breakdown on pitching grips because I realized I had a different grip that was helping my movement.   The motivational clips are also very inspiring.

 

Charlie Jerger

So his system works for pitchers of all ages and even position players


In February of 2010, Coach Wolforth completed his seventh Pitching Camp in conjuntion with the Fastball USA Training Centers.   Many of the same people who attended number 1 and 2 are still coming back for more. 

Read below what students and parents had to say about attending the inspirational Wolforth Pitching Event.


“ It was the best pitching camp I have ever been to!   It covered everything a pitcher should do, not only throwing wise, but the complete package.    Stretching, thinking, core training, and even our mind.  

Getting advice on what I need to work on as a pitcher, especially being older was outstanding.   Also learning the routine is not only great for a pitcher, but any coach or parent involved in baseball.  Overall a weekend spent with Ron is 3 days that will have an affect on the rest of your life. “

Michael Keller
Colfax, Illinois


I have been changed by this camp because the new information I have learned.     I learned I need to get my pelvis out further to gain more MPH, and I have improved my posture which has helped my control.

I now have a different outlook on how I will approach things.  For example believing in myself and now I have set a goal to reach 85mph.

I would recommend to anyone to come to this camp because it will change your views and your ability as a pitcher.  I also recommend to come to Fastball USA for weekly training like I have done.

Charlie Jerger
Chicago, IL

This camp was an inspirational an eye opening experience for me.  The drills, workout, techniques and mental way of looking at pitching possibilities are all amazing.    I have lifted weights and done other workouts, but none like these explosive activities.

I would greatly recommend this to anyone who is seriously interested in taking the first steps to becoming a better pitcher.   You will not leave this camp thinking it was a waste of time….I promise. 

There is so much to gain from this camp it would be a mistake to pass up the opportunity.


 
Merrick Mcgrady
This camp has really changed the way I think about pitching.   Coach Wolforth is an infulencital voice in pitching for me.  This camp has also given me new ways to boost my pitching speed and I would recommend this camp for others (un-less they are up against me for a spot!)

This was the most motivational pitching camp I have ever attended and if there is every an opportunity I would come back again, and again and again. 

Sam Miller

I went to the past Wolforth camp last year and I learned new things about pitching again this year.   I found myself pushing myself this past year in the different directions because of what I learned at the Wolforth camp. 

I am going to turn 22 in November, and never quit on myself as a pitcher.  My goal is to pitch 90mph and Coach Wolforth has helped me to get closer to achieving that goal. 

Pat Soraghan 



We drove 5 hours to attend the Ron Wolforth Clinic at Fastball USA and it was really worth it.    I like the way Ron teaches and I liked taking notes during lecture sessions and topics of pitch counts, and the motivational clips.   The new drills with throwing and improving strength were awesome.   Thanks Coach Wolforth!

Joseph Omilinsky

Egg Harbor, Wisconsin

This was the best pitching camp I ‘ve ever been to!  I learned to push beyond my mental limitations and my body is capable of great things.  It's amazing how not many pitchers lead with their pelvis anymore and no coaches teach it. 

I think I will be able to throw much harder and accurate because of what I have learned from Coach Wolforth this weekend.   I love how he analyzes hall of fame pitchers and their mechanics and gives easily understood drills to improve MOVEMENTS and not the more common, contemporary pitching coach faux pas positions.

 Dominic Demicco 


“This camp completely changed my view about Pitching. I have introduced to new workouts and exercises that improve velocity and command.   Ron has encouraged me not to give up and it is ok to fail but get right back to it so I can succeed.

This camp has taught me if you really want to be the best you can possibly be you want to see Coach Wolforth.   Your mind and your heart have to change for your arm and body to change.  

I will come back to any camps Ron Wolforth has here in Chicago.  This camp was hands down the best pitching camp I have ever been to”

Kristofer Hiatt  
Rochester, Indiana


This camp was amazing.   Coach Wolforth explains everything that is needed to throw harder and to make you go further.   I learned a lot about what to do and what NOT to do.   The drills are designed to help you throw harder and help pitching.

Coach Wolforth emphasized it really does not matter where you start, it matters where you finish.    Thanks Coach Wolforth.
