An important topic at hand is the launching of the FREE version of our SportsMechanics.com video instruction library. More importantly, this post is meant to pay tribute to many of the past heroes whom have paved the way for our athletic success we see today! The month of February is dedicated to thanking the African-American men and women athletes of our time. As an assistant college baseball coach and avid fan of all things baseball, I believe every young athlete should know the story of Jackie Robinson, the first African-American to play Major League Baseball. His presence on the diamond helped transcend baseball, professional sports and civil rights in this great country we all call home. While the start of the baseball season is still a few months away, I felt the best way to start off Black History Month was to link to a bio of the great life of Mr. Jackie Robinson. Hope you enjoy reading about his life as much as I do!
