My name is Georgia. I played elite softball through college. I've spent 7+ years coaching and have worked with hundreds of athletes throughout my career — helping them improve their hitting, lock down their defense, master the catching position, and most importantly, believe in themselves as players. I didn't build The Starting Nine because it was a good business idea. I built it because when I was growing up, access to elite coaching was expensive, limited, and gatekept by people who treated it like a secret. I'm done with that. Everything I know — every drill, every breakdown, every mental framework that helped me play at the college level and has helped hundreds of athletes since — lives inside this community. For free. 🗺️ How This Community Works Here's exactly where to find everything: 📣 Announcements — Check here first for updates, new content, and live call info ⚾ Hitting — Drills, swing breakdowns, and plate approach tips posted weekly 🧤 Defense — Fielding fundamentals, footwork, and positioning breakdowns 🎯 Catching — Blocking, framing, throwing mechanics and more 🏆 Wins & Progress — Share your improvements here.
