Baseball Cleats

So it's March tomorrow, and in my house March represents the arrival of baseball season.  From the preparation of loading up on new gear to the intense training sessions.  New season means another year older which means you've grown taller which leads to a bigger shoe size.  So it's time to purchase new Baseball Cleats, wheather you need baseball cleats, spikes, turf shoes of fashion sliders, it's time to shop the perfect shoe to fit this season.  Our Zero gravity baseball spikes offer a velcro cross training strap to ensure that pivot and cut is easier to execute. Pick up speed for steeling second and third or sliding into home with our top performance spikes and turf shoes. See you on the diamond!!!  

Protective eyewear

Protective eyewear is one of the most essential baseball accessories to equip yourself with. Namely this refers to a pair of sunglasses, which help shield your eyes from the glare of the sun so you can keep eye contact with the ball without damaging your eyes. Especially if you are playing in the outfield, spending all that time staring into the sun can be excruciating on your delicate eyes.  Protective eyewear/eyeglasses instantly enhance your performance in the sport and prevent you from making a mistake by fault of the brightness of the sun glaring into your eyes. 

Ion Braided Necklace

An ion braided necklace is another helpful accessory to wear when playing baseball. The purpose of this necklace is to help with relieving muscles and tendons, allowing you to feel more comfortable and be more flexible during the big game. These necklaces are available in a variety of colors and styles, and fit softly and comfortable around your neck. Whether you stick to wearing one or add a few at a time, an ion braided necklace can help to significantly improve your game.  Stay tuned for our spring training March Madness specials...

Baseball batting gloves

When you are involved with a sport like baseball, you do not only want to feel like a pro when you play the game, you want to look like one. This not only helps to boost your confidence and make other people take you more seriously, but also improves your game and allows you to play at your maximum ability. There are a few baseball accessories in particular which are worth at least considering, if you want to make the most of yourself as a baseball player and improving your playing status.  By equipping yourself with the proper baseball accessories, such as a baseball arm sleeve, protective eyewear, baseball batting gloves and other accessories, you raise your level of play and stay looking like a professional on and off the field.  With baseball batting gloves, you make a big improvement in your level of play. When you are up to bat, you always feel a bit of nervousness and anxiety waiting for the pitch and hoping to hit a big home run.

Warmup Jackets

As I prepare (with my 11 year old) for his first travel baseball tournament of the season this weekend, I experience the excitement in his heart.  I watch him pack his new uniform with his last name and number on both sides of the jersey, the new warm-up jackets by Akadema (very sharp I must add) and I see his eyes light up, as he anticipated the first pitch of the season.   These warm up jackets are a nice addition to any uniform, they consist of team logo on the front as well as each individual number on the right sleeve.  No name because baseball is about the team and not one individual player.  They really tie the entire uniform together and when the boys are on the field pre-game warm up they really look like professionals.  It's a joy to witness.   Like I always say if you want to play like a professional you have to first start with appearance.  If you do not represent yourself as a ball player than you will not be respected as well regardless of any age group.  Actually it starts early on in youth baseball.  It's up to us as parents, coaches/leaders to teach this and lead by example.  Play the part and dress as a ball player and represent you team /town proudly on the field, I guarantee you will impress the opponent and have them talking long after the final out.    

Baseball Training Workouts

As we approach closer to "Opening Day" the excitement of mastering the baseball training workouts in preparation for that first pitch, the smell of spring in the air as the anticipating awaits.  

Today’s kids have the advantage of using numerous training videos and DVDs, as well as batting sticks, pitching nets, practice balls, tees, pitching machines and more. However, all of these training aids combined with baseball training workouts help build muscle memory and increase response times, but they can not take the place of good physical conditioning. Working together with these great skill building aids, most coaches insist on a program of regular conditioning exercises as well. A strong player is capable of outperforming and outrunning players who skip this vital step in the training process.

Not only do these workouts build confidence and develop team unity they also make better players, these kids will be in better physical condition which leaves them healthier, more active and generally feeling better in their day-to-day lives.

Train hard so you too can be a better all-around player.

Baseball Batting Gloves

There's something romantic about baseball, it gets into your heart and lights you up inside. It's good for the soul, the purchasing of the pickets, planning the day around the event.  The hot dogs the fans the crowds cheering (for the players at the umpires), it's the whole package of feeling good.  It's time to start thinking about baseball equipment and accessories needed  by each player this season.  Baseball Batting Gloves are a key component in offensive playing.  Not only do they provide a better grip for hitting the Sheepskin leather on baseball batting gloves allow for increased flexibility and supreme comfort this improves player performance.  So as you get ready4baseball this year and consider the BTG by Akadema Professional design series baseball batting gloves they offer both lightweight and durable. ENJOY!!!

Baseball Team Uniforms

Hi everyone,

Today we are talking about how baseball gets in your life and doesn’t get out.  It’s a game of passionate love.  As I stated in yesterdays blog it gets in your heart and lights you up inside.  Wow, the power of baseball and the love of the game, great stuff.  What makes baseball so distinguished is the team oriented it brings out in players.  Offensively players have an opportunity to shine individually however; when it comes too defensively they work as one.       

 As much of an individual sport it is, it is also just as much of a team sport, every player on the diamond relying on each other to get the job done.  No one man can do it themselves, the power of a team.  That’s what makes it so great while most Baseball team uniforms have the players’ last name along with his/her number on the back of the jersey some teams choose just to have individual numbers on the sleeves with no names displayed on the baseball team uniforms, supporting the team and not one individual player.  It's up to the team to make the decision.  So next time you are at a baseball game take note as to what the teams wearing, chances are you will be impressed with what you see, a group of boys/men looking like a real TEAM.  ENJOY

PRICELESS!!!  With that said let’s celebrate the sport the traditional way: baseball, hot dogs, apple pie and the classic baseball raglan shirt made in the USA.  Prepare for spring season by purchasing your youth baseball apparel today at ready4baseball.com.  And to all the coaches out there thank you for taking care of our children…  ENJOY
