Welcome to YouthPitching.com.
My name is Steven Ellis, and I’m a two-time MLB Draft pick and former pitcher in the Chicago Cubs organization.
These days, I'm a parent and coach like many of you.
I created this website and my best-selling TUFFCUFF Jr pitching program to share practical training advice that parents can follow to help their son pitch better and reach the next level faster following a big league plan.
Ready to get started? Here are three ways to start your learning journey on this site:
Since 2014, my program has helped more than 16,000 pitchers pitch healthy and have fun. I just updated it for the 2022 baseball season and would love to hear how it's helping you help your son pitch better, too. You can purchase the program here.
Improve your pitching with my latest articles on mechanics, velocity, drills, arm care, injury prevention, accuracy, mental toughness, strategy and more!
