The Youth Sports Club is a leading producer of sports instructional videos and dvds. Produced by Coach Marty Schupak, This video has been called “the most creative sports instructional video ever made.” Coach Schupak takes household items and puts them to use as props for baseball drills. Instead of spending 0.00 for a baseball hitting net, coach Schupak shows how to make something equivalent for under .00.
