WHY "CREATING COACHABLE PLAYERS?"
The Best Athletes Aren’t Just Skilled—They’re Prepared.
They know how to train, how to adapt, and how to absorb coaching.
That doesn’t happen by accident - it happens by design.
CREATING COACHABLE PLAYERS was built to give you the tools, strategies,
and systems to develop athletes grow faster—on and off the field.
This is more than a course—it’s a Blueprint for Long-Term Development.
And it’s the exact same foundation I’ve used with elite athletes,
national teams, and pro organizations around the world.
Let's Talk About Who This Program Is For

This program is for you if...
You want to understand what truly drives athlete and player development.
Coaching is one of the most noble forms of leadership. It isn’t just about skill drills—it’s about leading with purpose. From shaping the culture to setting the tone, your role impacts everything. Inside this course, we break down the top strategies that help coaches build real progress—on and off the field. You'll gain the tools to lead, plan, and develop athletes who are resilient, prepared, and ready to be coached at every level.
You’re ready to expand your knowledge and truly prepare your players for the game.
Here's the truth: if you want to develop better players, you need to start by building better athletes. The athlete comes first—always.
This program will show you why preparing the athlete before coaching the player is the key to unlocking performance, minimizing injury, and raising the ceiling of what’s possible—for every player you coach.
You want to run a GREAT program and truly contribute to every athlete you coach.
The best coaches don’t just run practices—they understand development. They know what to do, when to do it, and how it fits into the bigger picture. This course gives you that framework. You’ll learn when to lean in, when to pull back, and how to align your training with the critical stages of your athletes’ growth. By the end, you’ll see just how powerful coaching can be when it’s built on purpose and long-term development.
I Want To Make It Clear
-this program IS NOT-
about hitting drills, fielding drills or pitching.
As Coaches we are often limited in how much we can help our players
because they can't do what we need them to do.
This Program Is About:
-
Helping YOU create more adaptable, more robust, more durable... and ultimately more coachable players
-
Getting your players ready for those drills
-
Helping you understand long-term athlete development and how it connects to on-field performance
-
Giving you a coaching framework to prepare athletes physically & mentally for the demands of baseball
-
Improving your players athleticism and reducing their risk of injury.
-
Equipping you to run focused, efficient practices, manage players more effectively, and create lasting impact
Have You Ever Wondered Why the Injury Rates in Sport Are So High?
Right now, we are experiencing some of the highest injury rates ever recorded in sport...
at every single age group - INCLUDING the professional levels.
Have You Noticed the Drop Out Rates in Sport?
We have historically high drop out rates especially at some of the most critical periods of development.
Have You Ever Wondered -
have we maxed out human performance?
There are incredible things happening in sport right now—but I’m convinced we’re nowhere near the ceiling of human performance. So that begs the question: where does the next level of performance come from?
I’ve been studying that question for years—breaking it down, reverse engineering it, putting it back together. And a couple common themes keep rising to the top: it all comes back to Coaching and Long-Term Development.
These aren’t just buzzwords—they’re the backbone of performance. And when you trace it all the way back, it starts with a single concept: knowing how to prepare your players to be coached.
That’s the unlock. That’s where the real development begins.
Here Is What We Know...
This is one of the most exciting times in the history of sport.
- We can raise the ceiling of potential for each of your players,
- Push your team to new heights of performance,
- And set your organization up for continued success.
I know we can do this because I've been a part of it. I've seen it first hand and I have helped put it all together time and time again.
That's exactly what I want to share with you right here in "Creating Coachable Players" - Performance Fundamentals 101
I created this program to help fill a HUGE GAP that exists in the sporting landscape.
Meet Jeff Krushell
Hi I'm Jeff Krushell, Sports Science & Athlete/Player Development Specialist and founder of Krush Performance.
I have been asked for years from coaches to put together a resource such as this course and I am excited to share my knowledge and insight I have gathered over the past 30 years.
This resource is meant to help you become an even better coach and help connect the dots between athlete development and player development, ultimately raising your athlete's ceiling of potential.
"Everything I do is to help athletes tap into their
potential as players."
-
I’ve spent the last 30 years helping athletes, coaches, and organizations tap into their real potential. It all started back in university—working with varsity, Olympic, and national teams whenever I could. That passion turned into a career in high-performance sport, taking me into pro baseball, football, and the NHL. From the Toronto Blue Jays to the former Edmonton Eskimos, it’s been a journey built on one mission: helping good athletes become great and supporting the coaches who guide them.
Along the way, I’ve had the opportunity to support athlete development on a global scale, working with MLB International programs across Europe, Africa, Mexico, the USA, New Zealand, and Canada. Today, I continue to work with teams, players, and agents looking to optimize performance and reduce injury risk.
For over 16 years, I’ve been breaking down performance strategies and sharing real conversations with top minds in sport on the Krush Performance Radio Show and podcast. Whether you're in the gym, on the field, or just trying to figure out how to help your players get better, this is where we make the science simple and the strategies real. My goal is to give coaches and athletes tools they can use right away—because when we share knowledge, we all get better.
"Krusher is "world class" in every area of performance, strength & conditioning as well as overall athletic development. Jeff has shaped, guided and led our athletic development program both on and off the field for 16 years. His expertise has directly impacted 100's of our student-athletes careers. Not only has Jeff made this impact within our program but has made this impact throughout the world with Major League Baseball.
Thanks for all you do for this great game Krusher. "Once a Jet....Always a Jet!”
- Les McTavish
Head Coach Vauxhall Academy of Baseball
"My experience with Jeff covers many years of clinics, workshops and academies in International baseball.
Jeff is passionate, professional and knowledgeable- with the skills and ability to transfer his knowledge to a wide variety of people of all ages.
His transformational style enhances successful outcomes for the coaches, players and his clients."
- Pat Doyle,
Former Coordinator of MLB’s International coaching programs in Europe and Africa. Elected to the ABCA HOF in 2019.
"To develop the best and compete with the best, you must have the best. That’s why we have used Jeff Krushell as our Athlete Development and Sports Performance Specialist for well over 10yrs now.
Jeff’s approach to both athlete and human performance is unlike anything else in the industry. It defies the traditional model of performance management and uses a highly specialized holistic approach that focuses on all aspects of the athlete and the person."
- Manny M. Schmidt,
President & CEO Link Management International NHLPA Certified Player Agent
Why Did I Build Creating Coachable Players?
First, I have been asked for years by coaches all over the world if I had a coaching resource for them.
It has been a huge undertaking but I finally have a coaching resource I am proud to share with all coaches.
Second, I created this course to fill a huge gap that exits in the sporting landscape.
The absence of proper athlete preparation for the game of baseball has resulted in
historically high injury rates and lower levels of talent development - at every level of sport.
I have seen it first hand - globally.
HOW and WHAT you coach today not only impacts your players and their performance right now
but it can impact the next level of coaching as to what can be coached and developed next,
from grassroots & youth to developmental & elite right to the professional level.
Understanding the levels of development and what your
responsibilities are as a coach, at every level of the game, is
crucial to overall player development.
