Thanks for the info. I have been meaning to get that DVD, but wanted to be sure this is what he taught.

I have seen many coaches in the past year going to this style. Not sure if it is new or not, but I have seen the coach at San Diego State and Iowa teaching some of the same things.

I also helped a AA infielder get ready for spring training this winter and he was also doing this same type of footwork.

Just curious. Does Coach Durkac teach fielding using mainly the one handed approach? This is another thing I have been seeing taught a lot lately. This is seen especially on balls slightly to a players right. Instead of getting in front using two hands, the player is instructed to use a backhand play (right foot out front), field in the middle of body, and then shuffle and throw to first.

I live right down the road from Championship Productions, so I am going to have to stop in there and take a look at this DVD. I am interested to see the content.
