The KWB Experience rolled into Dubuque, Iowa and joined forces with former Major League players Eric Munson and 2010 World Series Champion Andres Torres to host the Eric Munson Baseball Spring Classic.
The one-day Experience included two sessions where players experienced a pro-style workout including, hitting, infield/outfield, baserunning, pitching, and dynamic workouts. The stations were structured and timed to mimic a spring training type atmosphere. Players understood quickly that when you’re trying to get better, you have to be focused on the task at hand to get the most out of your time.
The roughly 200 hitters in attendance that day had the opportunity to learn from Kevin as he walked them through the mental part of hitting. In addition, he spent quality one-on-one time with each player in the cage working on their swings to simplify and better understand themselves in order to gain confidence at the plate.
At the end, parents had the opportunity to ask Kevin, Eric and Andres questions about how to better develop their child and what to look for in the coming years. This is always the most popular part of the Experience when parents can learn more in order to provide better guidance to their child.
The Iowa Experience was one of the more unique ones that Kevin has been a part of. “When you get a chance to be a part of a special group that includes Muns (Eric Munson) and Andres (Torres), you can’t help but get excited for the opportunity to positively influence the lives of these young people. I only wish I had something like this when I was their age.”
