Norwalk 13U & 14U Winter Workouts – Preparing Our Mariners for Spring & Summer Baseball

Norwalk Youth Baseball is excited to offer structured Winter Workouts for our 13U and 14U players, led by All American Baseball / The Batters Eye CT with instructors Vinny Carlucci and Mat Terrillion.

These sessions are designed to develop our players, strengthen the Norwalk Mariners pipeline, and build momentum going into a big spring and summer on-field season.


What the Winter Program Covers

🔹 Hitting Development

  • Swing mechanics and progression

  • Exit velocity + contact consistency

  • Situational hitting approach

  • Tee work, front toss, machine reps, and live looks

🔹 Defensive Fundamentals

  • Infield & outfield footwork

  • Glove work, transfers & throwing mechanics

  • Position-specific reps

  • Reading hops, angles, and improving reaction times

🔹 Pitching & Throwing Program

  • Proper warm-up, recovery and arm care

  • Balance, stride, and delivery fundamentals

  • Velocity growth through safe progression

  • Bullpen work and mechanical feedback

🔹 Baseball IQ & Situational Play

  • Baserunning strategy

  • Defensive communication

  • Cuts, relays, and game reads

  • Decision-making in game-like environments


Why This Matters for 13U & 14U Mariners

This age group is fully transitioning to the big diamond, where the game speeds up and competition increases.

Our goal is to make sure Norwalk players — especially those in the Mariners program — enter spring and summer:

  • Confident

  • Fundamentally sound

  • Physically prepared

  • Ready to compete at a higher level

These Winter Workouts serve as the foundational preparation that fuels success for the Mariners in the upcoming season.
