Powered by GoogleMy 8-year-old son worked with Michael Spadafore on batting, fielding and throwing. Within 2 months (2 lessons a week), I saw a significant improvement in his skill level which translated to results on the field. My son is building confidence in his baseball ability and periodically asks me, "WHEN IS MY NEXT LESSON WITH COACH MIKE?!"
My 9-year-old nephew took lessons with Mike Spadafore over the winter. Come springtime, my nephew did well in terms of not swinging at bad pitches, making contact, and good timing. We were nervous about his transition to kid pitch, but Mike helped out tremendously! Mike has a good way of communicating with kids so they'll listen. Also, we had access to video analysis of my nephew's swings. We will be back!
We highly recommend Coach Mike Spadafore! He is committed to seeing our nine year old improve in all aspects of the game. He knows how to connect with the kids and make lessons fun, while also teaching baseball fundamentals and IQ. Outside of lessons, he breaks down video of the hitting sessions and provides commentary on what is going well and what needs worked on. Having that visual to show our son is a huge help! My son loves going to lessons because Coach Mike has a great attitude and demeanor. We saw a lot of improvement this latest baseball season and know that a lot of it is thanks for Coach.
My dude loves baseball, he’s 7 and the games are getting more intense. I practice with him, but unfortunately I don’t have sports or a baseball background so I try my best. And when it comes to me pitching balls to him it’s a rarity if he’s able to hit them! On a good day he dodges the balls and doesn’t get hit with them! We needed some hitting lessons and I found Mike Spadafore. You could tell he enjoys helping the kids develop and perfect their skills. Before we left his first lesson my son was asking when we could come back and practice with him!
I can't say enough GREAT things about Butia Baseball Academy and especially Coach Mike Spadafore. Coach Mike has been working with our 9yr old son on hitting, pitching, fielding and even some baseball IQ. It was amazing to see his improvement in '23 fall ball season and the side side comparison video of where he starting with hitting compared to his hitting today. Coach Mike developed a great connection with our son and really improved his confidence in the game. He also makes learning the game fun and knows how to speak in a way that resonates with kids. It is so great to see the excitement in our son and he really looks forward to his weekly appointments with Coach Mike!
