At The Pen Athletic Training Center in Tacoma, our Little League Development Classes are the ideal starting point for young athletes aged 8–12 who want to build foundational baseball skills and confidence in a fun, structured environment.
We emphasize growth in:
Hitting mechanics: stance, swing path, and timing fundamentals.
Swing mechanics: enhance swing speed and contact rate through proper kinetic sequencing.
Fielding technique: focus on footwork, glove work, and accurate throwing.
These core competencies are crucial for consistent performance and long-term player development.
Our classes provide consistent practice under guided coaching, helping players gain confidence and refine their skills in game-like scenarios.
Training at a young age should be motivating and supportive. Our classes foster teamwork and make learning feel like team practice—perfect preparation for actual Little League games.
