HITTING
Every hitter is unique. Different swings, minds, and approaches. Coaching means adapting, not cloning. It’s about meeting each player where they are, building trust, and helping them grow into the best version of who they are, not me.
FIELDING
I’ve spent years training at every position, not just to play, but to understand the game deeply. That work lets me coach fielding with purpose—teaching positioning, timing, and mindset. Knowing the demands of each spot helps me guide players to become smarter, more complete defenders who play with confidence.

AGILITY
Agility is the foundation of being an athlete. With a 6.27 60-yard dash, I train to move efficiently—quick first steps, body control, balance. It shows up in the field with range and explosive reads, and at the plate through rhythm and adjustability. Agility connects everything.

Knowing the game is more than skills—it’s understanding timing, angles, and situations. Knowledge builds confidence, helping anticipate plays and adjust strategies. But true growth happens off the field—learning discipline, humility, and leadership to become a better man.

KNOWLEDGE
About Me
My name is Zach Zarko, I'm a faith-driven baseball player/coach from Fort Worth, Texas. I’ve played at the college level and in summer leagues, and now I’m stepping into pro ball in the Frontier League. I have a degree in Kinesiology, so I plan to use my knowledge and my long while in the training room to properly train and care for my players. My goal is to help young athletes not just get better at baseball, but also grow in character, confidence, and work ethic. I care about teaching the game the right way and helping players become both physically and mentally strong young men on and off the field.
