Season concludes over Labor Day weekend back here in the USA.

House of Pitching is pleased to announce that we now carry the
Power Push by Quinn's Unlimited.
If you've ever worked with Bill or heard his presentation, you know that he does not endorse many products, only 3 to be exact. This is one of them.
For those of us in colder climates that cannot practice outside year round, the Power Push can be an invaluable tool in correcting the bad habit of twisting the foot before push off when practicing on anything other than dirt. This tool promotes proper leg drive, helping your pitcher retain power and speed.
The Power Push is made of no break polypropylene, making it very light.
You can find and purchase the Power Push in our online store for $49.99 plus shipping, that's less than the cost of one pitching lesson!!!
