9U | BASEBALL COACH

Hi I’m Chris Haendel, I have been coaching with the Legends Organization since 2022 and PONY before that.

I started playing at an early age working my way through the different levels and eventually playing my travel ball for Babe Ruth in the Bay Area. After playing all 4 years at Amador Valley (Pleasanton), I played 2 years at Chabot College for the legendary coach Steve Friend.

I was fortunate to transfer to Long Beach State and work with the Dirtbags baseball program and coaching staff from 2005-2007. After years of moving around the Bay Area my wife Veronica and I landed in Brentwood and we enjoy watching our 3 kids play the sports they love.

My coaching philosophy is centered around player development ensuring our kids have a positive and supportive environment, all while building character and teamwork, and emphasizing effort over just winning.

COACH

Hi, I am Coach Gino. I have been coaching youth baseball and softball for over 15 years. I have a strong track record of developing young athletes into confident skilled players. 

My passion for the game and my focus on fundamentals has allowed me in helping players grow on and off the field. 

My coaching style is not a one-size-fits-all, I adapt my approach to each of my players' unique learning style. With a focus on individual differences and different learning styles, I aim to provide support, fostering a culture of accountability where all personal growth contributes to the overall team goal.
