Dominate the Diamond

 

Just now and then someone(s) comes along and does something out of nowhere that is exceptional, positive and surprising.

Exceptional, because it was so professionally well done. Positive, because it was reaching out to provide help to others. Surprising, because what they did was completely “fall out of the sky” 100% unsolicited. No better compliment could I have asked for.

The gentlemen of who I praise are: Duke Baxter and Steve Nikorak. Both former professional ball players who own a company called Dominate the Diamond. Once you go to their website you immediately see Duke and Steve's passion and knowledge for the game of baseball.

Their commitment to making coaches better becomes obvious as you click through pages of dozens of baseball and softball courses for coaches. They offer multiple levels of player training video, game strategies, and additional resources. All broken geared for player ages and skill levels. And so much more.

What really stood out was their focus on teaching players respect, positive team culture, and how to be resilient when things don’t always go as planned. These are things that make every coach and player both successful on the field, and a better person off the field.

For those of you beginning your coaching careers, t-ball on up, no more excuses.  Now there is a manual, if you want to Dominate the Diamond that is.

Best Regards Duke and Steve
