Bach to Basics
We never had this detailed instruction to tap into. It's the "little things" that are overlooked. Those "little things" always turn into "Big Things" when not addressed in practice. Not only should every coach have these tools of learning, but every parnet needs all of the instruction "The Ripken Way" has to offer. Why have the burden of breaking bad habits? The parnet can now coach his/her own children, and take a active part in coaching their team. Mystery over. Bill and Cal Ripken breaks the game down to easy to understand principles, the most important aspect of Playing Baseball is Playing, no matter what age you are. Nothing changes, the bigger the boys, the bigger the toys; with the game of baseball, we can play as kids through playing/instructing our kids. The bigger we get, the faster we pitch, the further we hit, etc., if we have proper training and instruction. We now play, and have fun learning with "The Ripken Way". Priceless!

Great Teaching Aid
I am an assistant Little League coach with two small kids of my own playing (ages 5 & 6). These DVD's are a great addition to coaching and teaching kids of all skill levels. We incorporate many of the instructions on a daily basis during practice, not to mention the work I do with my own kids.The instruction from the DVD's have helped our team incorporate new exercises into practice. I can definitely see changes in our team and an improvement in technique that these instructions have helped foster.In addition, my kids really enjoy watching them. By simply watching them, they then try to mimic what is taught on the video without me explaining the exercise too much.I would highly recommend these video's for all students and coaches of the game.

" Thanks Cal "
Baseball has always been a passion, and I just wanted to share this love of the game with someone I care very much about.Although this person is still relatively young, and new to the game, this was the perfect introduction to feed a hungry soul.They just didn't have wonderful instructional information like this when I was his age.The knowledge that a great deal of information can be passed along, is comforting to someone like myself who is a great distance away.It contains concise information that can be practiced, and then you always have the information you need right at hand, by simply reviewing the DVD again.P.S., if you wanted to know anything about Baseball, Cal Ripken Jr. would be a great choice.

Ripken Videos
These videos are fantastic- I highly recommend them for anyone who wants to coach or teach their kids the right way to play baseball. The drills can be started at a young age (in parts) and continued up thru the high school level. The video's don't go over every possible situation or skill, and I don't think it was ever their intention to do so, but they do cover those skills and fundamentals that are critical to future development. While the videos cover basic skills, and then some, the detailed explanation, subtle tips & cues and drills make the difference between almost learning a skill and learning a skill. I have tried most of the drills with my team and the kids love them, without really knowing how advanced the techniques are. A must for anyone that wants to teach their kids the right way to play.

Your kids will love it!
As a baseball coach of youth baseball I found this to be one of the best video series I have ever used. The drills are easily repeatable, and the instruction is thorough and easy for kids to understand. I watch the videos, and then have the parent and their son or daughter watch the video, and then we do the drills. The kids really pick up quickly on the instruction.Well worth the money!

Super,super,super!!!
If you are a youth or an adult baseball coach you will want "Baseball the Ripken Way." It is amazing and full of information and practice tips that can be shared with ballplayers of any age. My son and I coach 12 years of age baseball players and we are incorporating this DVD 3-Pack into our practice format. It really is super, super, super. Coach, you will be glad you added this DVD 3-Pack to your collection.
