The TAP® Connector Throwing Club is a 16" solid wood training tool designed to optimize throwing mechanics and prevent arm injuries. Developed in collaboration with renowned pitching coaches Ron Wolforth and Randy Sullivan, this club promotes a connected and efficient overhand throwing pattern by improving kinetic chain sequencing and correcting common disconnections. Its unique design, with a center of mass 12" above the hand, enhances body awareness and facilitates an ideal movement pattern. Use it in conjunction with a regulation baseball and the TAP® Connection Ball™ for a comprehensive training approach.

Benefits:

    • Develops a Connected Throwing Pattern: Promotes proper sequencing and timing of movements for optimal efficiency.
    • Enhances Body Awareness: Improves proprioception and feel for efficient throwing mechanics.
    • Corrects Mechanical Flaws: Addresses disconnections and promotes proper shoulder and torso rotation.
    • Increases Biomechanical Efficiency: Optimizes movement patterns for increased velocity and control.
    • Reduces Arm Pain and Injury Risk: Promotes proper mechanics and reduces stress on connective tissue.
    • Versatile Training Tool: Can be used for drills, warm-ups, and blended training with other tools.
    • Durable Construction: Made of solid wood for long-lasting performance.
    • Developed with Experts: Created in collaboration with renowned pitching coaches Ron Wolforth and Randy Sullivan.

Unlock the secrets of efficient movement and maximize your throwing power with the TAP® Connector Throwing Club.

Developed in collaboration with renowned pitching coaches Ron Wolforth and Randy Sullivan, this 16" solid wood training tool is engineered to optimize your throwing mechanics and prevent arm injuries. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, the TAP® Connector Throwing Club can help you achieve a connected and efficient overhand throwing pattern.

More than just a club, it's a key to unlocking your body's natural throwing power.

Here's the science behind the magic:

The TAP® Connector Throwing Club is rooted in the principles of Dynamic Systems Theory (DST), a framework that explains how movement emerges from the interaction of your body, the environment, and the task at hand. By introducing the club as a unique constraint, you challenge your body to self-organize and discover more efficient movement solutions.

Think of it like this:

Imagine your body is a complex network of interconnected systems. When you throw, these systems need to work together in perfect harmony to generate power and accuracy. The TAP® Connector Throwing Club acts as a guide, helping your body find the most efficient pathways for movement.

Here's how it works:

  • Constraint-Led Approach: The club's unique design and weight distribution act as a constraint, guiding your body into the correct positions and promoting proper sequencing of movements.
  • Differential Learning: The subtle variations introduced by the club's shape and length encourage your body to adapt and explore different movement patterns, leading to more robust and adaptable motor learning.
  • Chaos Theory: Even small changes in your throwing motion can have a big impact on the outcome. The club helps you harness this principle by encouraging you to find the "sweet spot" where your movements are most efficient and powerful.
  • Fluid Dynamics: Just like a well-designed airplane wing, the club's shape helps to optimize airflow and reduce drag, allowing you to generate more velocity with less effort.
  • Control Theory: Your body is constantly making adjustments to maintain balance and control. The club provides feedback that helps you fine-tune these adjustments and develop a more refined throwing motion.

Benefits you'll experience:

  • Develops a Connected Throwing Pattern: Promotes proper sequencing and timing of movements for optimal efficiency.
  • Enhances Body Awareness: Improves proprioception (your body's sense of itself in space) and feel for efficient throwing mechanics.
  • Corrects Mechanical Flaws: Addresses disconnections and promotes proper shoulder and torso rotation, correcting issues like "Forearm Play."
  • Increases Biomechanical Efficiency: Optimizes movement patterns for increased velocity and control.
  • Reduces Arm Pain and Injury Risk: Promotes proper mechanics and reduces stress on connective tissue.
  • Versatile Training Tool: Can be used for drills, warm-ups, and blended training with other tools like the TAP® Connection Ball™ and a regulation baseball.
  • Durable Construction: Made of solid wood for long-lasting performance.
  • Developed with Experts: Created in collaboration with renowned pitching coaches Ron Wolforth and Randy Sullivan.
