Real attention. Real results.
Big rosters and short team practices don't leave much time for your athlete. At The Player's Edge, every session is built around one player: their mechanics, their goals, their next season. That's the edge.
Baseball Pitching Instruction
Peak pitching performance isn't one-size-fits-all; it depends on unique movement patterns the naked eye can't see. True velocity and accuracy are driven by invisible factors like joint mobility, force production, and kinetic chain sequencing. Through targeted table assessments and force testing, you can identify hidden energy leaks, customize movement patterns, and unlock maximum velocity and command tailored to how a pitcher's body is naturally built to move.
Hitting Instruction (Baseball & Softball)
Every swing is inherently unique because every athlete has a distinct biological profile—from limb length and joint mobility to relative strength and skeletal structure. Rather than forcing hitters into a rigid, one-size-fits-all model, effective development focuses on identifying an individual's natural movement signature. By tailoring mechanics to fit a player's physical capabilities, you eliminate energy leaks, maximize power output, and optimize long-term performance without forcing unnatural movement patterns.
Increase Your Velocity
Building true velocity and exit velocity safely requires a structured, multi-tier training approach rather than quick fixes. By combining seasonal, workload-managed throwing programs with overload and underload bat training using the Edge Designed Bat System, athletes develop elite rotational power and arm speed through progressive adaptation. This method reinforces proper mechanical efficiency, addresses individual energy leaks, and safely drives measurable gains in ball speed and exit velocity without overtaxing the body.
Meet Coach Terry Luce
Coach Terry is a Kennett, Missouri native and College of the Ozarks graduate with over 20 years of baseball coaching experience. He's been pitching coach at Evangel University, assistant baseball coach at College of the Ozarks, RBI Coordinator for the Memphis Redbirds at AutoZone Park, and an instructor at Bocklee Baseball Camp. Now he brings that experience home to Southeast Missouri, one player at a time.
Individual Lessons
One athlete, one coach, and the whole session is about your player. We look at their mechanics, set clear goals, and work at their pace. It's the most personal way to train, for players ages 8 and up.
Small Group Lessons
Train alongside teammates or friends and push each other. Players still get personal coaching, plus competitive reps that feel like the real game. It's a great fit for teams and siblings.
