Tincher Pitching
"Denny is an innovator. His approach is unique but when he explains it, it makes perfect sense. My daughter feels strong and loose pitching, something she had never felt before." - Mike Banker, West Des Moines, Iowa
"Our family is absolutely in awe of Denny’s abilities as a coach. He is not only the best pitching coach that we’ve ever seen. He is, quite simply, the best coach that we’ve ever seen. Since we live on the West Coast, we meet with Denny about twice a year, for 2-3 days each time. You might think that the 2-3 hour lessons each day would be taken at a leisurely pace, but they are each jam-packed with instruction, drills, and spot-on feedback. Denny’s approach is remarkable in several ways:
1. His ability to communicate with young women in a way that is positive and fun, yet also demanding. He works to bring out the best in each young woman.
2. His ability to look at the entire pitch, spot specific errors, and discover the root cause of those errors. Then, he has an entire arsenal of drills, each aimed at developing muscle memory of the right movements.
3. His enthusiasm for learning. He is interested not only in finding out what works for pitchers, but also in finding out why it works. Every time that we come to see him, we aren’t just covering all of the old points all over again, we are learning new and better approaches.
4. His insistence on incorporating the entire family into the learning process. He understands that it’s the moms and dads who will be working with the pitchers between lessons, encouraging their daughters, holding to them to the standards and commitments that they’ve set for themselves." -Michael Kristo-Santa Clara, California.
"Denny has made more of a difference in an amazingly short period of time than any other pitching coach that we have ever had. His lessons always result in an immediate improvement and he is always looking for innovative ways to help that make sense and are easily understood. We sometimes drive a long way for the lessons, but would drive a lot further if we had to." - Tommy Waldrop, Georgia.
“I have taken my daughter to camps, clinics, and lessons across the mid-Atlantic and can honestly say that Denny Tincher is the best instructor we have been fortunate enough to work with. His many years of experience have given him a special insight into the mechanics and fundamentals of pitching and he does an excellent job of relaying that knowledge to his students.” – Craig Thompson, Bristol, Virginia.
"Our 16yr old daughter after going to numerous pitching instructors seemed to hit a plateau with her pitches. We have seen Denny three times now and she has made significant improvement and she continues to improve. We have him to thank for her success. Our daughter looks forward to her sessions with Denny." -Clifford Coho, East Freedom, PA
“From the way you teach to the respect you show our daughter, you have made her want to become the very best pitcher she can be. The instruction time is intense, specific, and fun, all at the same time. We have found that our 1 or 2 day sessions every 4-6 weeks are doing more for her than working with a local pitching coach 2 to 3 times per week. It is well worth our time and money, and, more importantly, she looks forward to her sessions with you.” – C.D. & Patty Hoskins, Charlotte, North Carolina.
"In ONE lesson, Denny was able to target my daughter's slower mechanics, made some simple corrections, to find an excited, budding young pitcher. Amazing!" – Tracie Davidson, Warrenton, VA
“The importance of not only teaching our daughter, but Denny's willingness to teach me as well has been beneficial in the growth of her young pitching success. From the beginning, Denny has taught her the correct way to maximize her body mechanics with repetition of drills. The method that she has learned has become as natural as walking to her now. Denny has really given our daughter and myself the tools so she can become a successful #1 pitcher. - Brad and Davina Poff, Charlotte, NC.
"Denny challenges conventional wisdom and teaches a delivery that maximizes velocity and spin. At the same time it is a more natural motion and is far less stressful on the body than the traditional “closed” delivery taught by many today." - Dave Hoover, Clemson, SC
“Coach Tincher is a great instructor. Since becoming a part of my daughter’s pitching development, with his unique techniques for different pitches, she has increased speed, and the movement on the ball is fantastic. Coach Tincher can catch little problems that I don’t see. My daughter has a very good rapport with him. All of this is very important to grow in my opinion; we look forward to each time we are with him.” – Arthur Ferguson, Erwin, Tennessee
"We can’t thank you enough for the time, patience and instruction you gave our daughter. It soooo surpassed our expectations." Mitzie Larsen, Vienna, Virginia


"Denny is rewriting female pitching fundamentals the way that his daughter, Angela, rewrote NCAA record books. What makes him truly unique? For starters, years of studying female biomechanics with doctors and trainers. Combine that extensive knowledge with his personal journey, his creativity, and his tremendous ability to communicate and it just doesn't get any better."
-Mike Mertz

"Denny is a pro's pro! I've had the honor to collaborate with him on a number of events and his students always leave with a greater knowledge of how their body works but more importantly their passion for pitching is always taken to new heights. He treats each student as an individual and challenges himself to teach each student how she can reach her goals. Quite simply, he is the best!"
