September 12, 2024 - New Castle, PA – GRIT Sports Performance (GSP) is excited to announce its partnership with Neshannock High School Baseball as the team's "Official Growth, Recovery, and Innovative Training Partner." This partnership provides Neshannock baseball athletes access to advanced testing, in-season monitoring, and performance analysis, all designed to help players excel on and off the diamond.
Baseball, particularly for pitchers and catchers, places significant physical stress on the body. GRIT Sports Performance will focus on managing this wear and tear by utilizing tools like 3D motion capture and force plates to assess biomechanics, power output, and movement patterns. This in-depth analysis helps identify potential injury risks early, ensuring athletes can perform at their peak throughout the in-season and off-season demands.
“We are excited to partner with a program like Neshannock Baseball, where the coaching staff is prioritizing the long-term health and development of their athletes,” said Paul Fair, founder of GRIT Sports Performance. “Coach Q has a forward-thinking approach, always seeking new ways to elevate his players and provide them with the best resources available. This partnership allows us to bring cutting-edge resources, solutions and tools, that are used in major college and professional sports to high school teams, helping athletes stay healthy, return to play faster, individualize performance plans, and identify areas of opportunity regardless the season they’re in."
Scheduled tracking and monitoring will begin with baseline testing this off-season and continue throughout the year. This ensures a clear understanding of each athlete’s progress, defines normal ranges, and allows for personalized corrective programming accessible through GSP’s performance app. In addition, Neshannock baseball players will receive discounted access to GSP Labs’ recovery services, including cryotherapy, compression therapy, red light therapy, and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. These treatments are designed to enhance recovery between games and practices, ensuring athletes remain prepared to meet the demands of their sport year-round.
This partnership sets a new standard for Neshannock Baseball, offering athletes the same data-driven insights and recovery tools used by top-level pros. By bridging tradition and innovation, GRIT and Neshannock Baseball are equipping the next generation of players with the resources needed to succeed in today’s competitive environment.
Neshannock Baseball Head Coach, John Quahliero, shared, “We are blessed to have these types of testing and recovery resources available in our backyard and a boosters organization who is fully committed to supporting the best interest of our student athletes. From my perspective, it was a no brainer. We will always put our prospects first and seek out the best for their development and player welfare. We are thrilled to add Paul Fair & GRIT to our baseball family. GRIT is going to help elevate our program to mirror major college and pro standards. We are very eager and excited to begin this partnership!”
