Coach Suplee teaches out of The Ballpark at Duluth. The Ballpark is a first-class indoor baseball training facility. For a student coming to Atlanta for a multiple day session, there are arrangements made with a nearby hotel for lodging. You are responsible for arranging travel and lodging arrangements. Coach Suplee will pick you up at the hotel, instruct, and return you to the hotel as often as necessary. This is a custom lesson package, so the amount of time spent working out per day is up to you. A common day amounts to being picked up at the hotel about 10:30 am for a two hour practice, then a break for lunch, followed by a few hours of work in the afternoon.
Coach Suplee is also available to travel TO YOU ! Often students and their parents would rather have professional instruction on their "home field". Simply explain what kind of lesson package (and where) you would like and Coach Suplee will take care of the rest. You may customize your lesson package request on the Feedback Page.

Again, you may practice more or less depending on your needs.There are numerous drills listed on the Check List Page. These drills are explained in detail on the Terms and Drills Page. You may visit each page by clicking on the links. These are great drills used to correct specific problems. Coach Suplee will review the swing you bring into the facility and organize a set of drills to improve your mechanics through correct repetition. Video analysis is a big part of the overall workout. A student can learn a lot by watching his swing and the result.The most common theme among all of Coach Suplee's clients is that they already know how to hit, but they want to improve in a specific area. An example of what prior students have concentrated and improved on: pitches located either inside or outside, high or low in the strike zone, a particular off-speed pitch (curveball, slider, change, etc.).
The best drills in the world are of little value if performed incorrectly. The player will have the undivided attention of a professional. A personal video will be put together and furnished to be taken home and referred to. Both the "old" swing and the "new & improved" swing will be on the tape for comparison. Also, there is little point drilling on the player's strengths. The most overall improvement will come when the player addresses his particular weaknesses.
