Smart Coach App System Review, with Tracy Ybarra (Free Agents Baseball Club)

June 09, 2020

I have had the luxury of using the Smart Coach Radar App System for the past year and a half. It has been a wonderful tool in tracking my players throwing velo from the outfield, infield, and pitching positions. It's also very good for tracking exit velo. I use it at home in my backyard with my sons Evan who will be going into fifth grade and Kaleb who will be playing in his second year of college.

"Love the Smart Coach Pocket Radar!! We have been using the Video/Radar option to improve Pitching Mechanics = Pitching Velo. The video is a great tool to show kids the Velo Results based off proper Mechanics. We use the same format to increase Exit Velo with video/radar info in Batting Mechanics. Kids see instant feedback, instead of just hearing about it, they can actually see that coaches instructions equal better results."

I see Pocket Radar’s technology as an integral tool for both development and exposure,” says Friedman. “The more you measure your throws while training, the better you can determine what’s working and what isn’t. It’s a great way to judge mechanical tweaks, as well as making sure you’re throwing with the proper effort. For recruiting and exposure, it’s a must have. If you’re not supplying measurables, you may as well not waste your time in creating a video. The slickest video, without measurables, is useless.”
