Next up on the ABCA Podcast is Driveline Director of Youth Baseball and the Driveline Academy, Deven Morgan. At Driveline Academy Morgan integrates individual skill development, nutrition guidance, and physical therapy. The intention of Driveline is to address what Morgan has seen in the past 15 years. Players who were all too often underdeveloped on the fundamental skills that would help them stay competitive in the game as they transitioned from youth to High School. Anything that Morgan has done in terms of developing programs and systems to improve youth baseball development has been done with an intention to positively impact all the players in the organization, including his own.

Morgan has been an instrumental part of the ABCA with his involvement on the Youth and Travel Committees, and the Youth Summit. Morgan is a published author, publishing Skills that Scale, a youth baseball training manual.

We had a lot to cover since we last recorded in 2020, so this will be a 2-part episode. This is part II of our conversation. We dive deeper into what the ABCA Youth and Travel Committees are trying to get accomplished to help retention and health of amateur baseball players.

We had a lot to cover since we last recorded in 2020, so this will be a 2-part episode with part II coming out next week. This is an in-depth interview on player development at the youth age. Morgan is living it on the daily since his son Danny has been training at Driveline since he was 9 years old and is now a 17-year-old going through the college recruiting process.
