@JETSR71 posted:I can see where this would be useful if you combined it with some type of "name brand" program. Measure velocity before and after a Driveline weighted balls or Jaeger long toss throwing program. Maybe offer both and compare? This would give some initial interest. They both have "free" versions. See what gives you some results and you can blow the program's improvement horn to get interest next year.
Maybe a Driveline heavy, light, bat swing training program, etc. Maybe get a local swing guru to get involved to tout his program.
Get a track coach to help work on sprints or just get a sprint program from someone.
Lot's of options to encourage participation if you can prove results.
Here is a link to "recommended" measurables.

Just because kids get these numbers is not a guarantee. Just a reference.
This was VERY helpful and great ideas. Thank you very much. That website for recommended measurables is amazing. That might be more beneficial than what I'm looking for on the average HS metrics (but also emphasizing that numbers isn't enough to get to the next level). I bookmarked the site so I will be visiting it quite often
