We at home plate realize that coaching is a difficult job. It’s a volunteer activity that requires a lot of time, effort and knowledge. Since the coach is probably the most important role model the players have during the season, we at Headquarters are proud to offer several tools for today’s coach to provide the best instruction possible while keeping the game fun.

“Baseball The Ripken Way” DVD Series is unlike any instructional videos currently on the market. This set includes three DVDs – Fundamentals of Defense, Fundamentals of Hitting, and the Fundamentals of Pitching. Each DVD is approximately 60 minutes of instruction geared toward player age groups. Cal and Bill Ripken are joined by Ripken Baseball lead pitching instructor John Habyan in providing a breakdown of all the basic fundamentals of the game.

“The Ripken Way” CD-ROM is the first instructional CD-ROM offered by Cal Ripken, Jr. In addition to the Cal Ripken, Jr. and his brother Billy, the CD features outfielder Joe Orsulak and pitcher John Habyan. This excellent tool is like having a coach’s encyclopedia at your fingertips. With an hour and a half of available instruction material, you can view as much, or as little, as you would like in one sitting. Then at a later time, you can go back to the CD, and with just a couple of clicks, go back to the exact point you left off. Unlike a VHS videotape, the CD-ROM will take you directly to any topic, regardless of where it is on the CD. There is no rewinding, fast forwarding or searching – just point and click.

PLAY BASEBALL THE RIPKEN WAY is the best instructional book to ever hit the market. Providing a blueprint for the best way to teach the game of baseball to youth, it still maintains a sense of fun. Cal Ripken, Jr. and his brother Billy provide the ultimate guide to playing the game.

The Coaches’ Series Video Collection by Margie Wright, Head Softball Coach for Fresno State University and a member of the Babe Ruth League Advisory Board offers pitching fundamentals, defensive practice organization and hitting strategies, mechanics and techniques. This video collection has been specifically designed to help Babe Ruth Softball coaches achieve our #1 goal making the game of softball fun for the participants.
