Ryan Hall - Oakman High School & USA Baseball

Gratitude. Ownership. Impact.

Three things Coach Ryan Hall wants his players to carry with them long after their last game—and three reasons I enjoyed this conversation so much.

The Oakman High School head baseball coach and USA Baseball 12U training camp coach joins me for an honest conversation about developing competitors, building relationships, and continuing to grow as a coach.

We get into preparing players to handle adversity—and want another shot, giving kids room to compete, learn, and enjoy the game, working with parents as allies and how his son Hampton helped him rediscover his love for baseball.

One thing that really stayed with me: Ryan wants his players to finish the season wishing they could come back and practice together on Monday. Think about that. Whatever the record says, they valued being part of that team enough to want another day together. That’s something worth building.

Give this episode a listen, and share it with a coach or parent who would enjoy the conversation!
