Training questions.
Are GEARS lessons one-on-one?
Not always. Premium lessons are one coach and one player. Pack lessons can be small-group sessions: after the first session, your coach may pair your player with others at the same level.
How are GEARS lessons sold?
As a single lesson or a pack of 4 or 8, paid online before the session. Your coach sends the payment link when they set up the first session.
Do you train softball players?
Yes. Tell us the sport and what to work on in your request, and the front desk matches you with a coach who teaches it.
Can GEARS train my team?
Yes. A GEARS coach can run your team’s practices a day or two a week, and you coach the games. Send a team training request with your age group and what you need.
Can I pay cash at GEARS?
No. GEARS does not take cash. Every lesson, pack and camp is paid online before the session, through the payment link your coach or the front desk sends.
