An ORIGIN program
ORIGIN Iron.
Hitting, a program of the game pillar.
Every player a hitter.
ORIGIN Iron is the ORIGIN Hitting Program, and every ORIGIN player is in it.
Batting practice, the daily work at the plate, and the teaching that makes a swing hers. Iron is just about the bat, scaled to her age and her world, so the work fits the player swinging it.
The at-bat is the unit.
Modern fastpitch asks for a hitter who drives in runs, finds the gaps and gets on base.
That hitter changes a game from the leadoff spot or the nine hole. Iron builds her one at-bat at a time, and a good at-bat is more than a hit. Hard contact, a walk taken, a long fight with two strikes. Iron values every one of them.
What it’s built on.
For players
A swing she owns. The work is scaled to her age and world, and it builds a hitter a coach can count on anywhere in the lineup.
For coaches
Hitting taught in progressions, from the tee to live pitching, so every player knows what her swing is working on this week.
At practice
Batting practice with a purpose. Short rounds, honest reps, and every swing aimed at something.
On game day
An at-bat with a plan. She hunts her pitch, fights with two strikes, and leaves every trip to the plate with something.
The whole secret. Hard contact is a habit.
Every at-bat counts.
