M4P Assessments

Baseball & softball assessments in St. Louis

Development starts with an assessment.

You can't build a real plan without a real starting line. The M4P assessment measures where your athlete is today — then we build the plan to move them forward.

Every assessment runs at Center STL — 6727 Langley Ave, St. Louis, MO 63123, in South County.

What to Expect

A clear, structured experience for families

No guesswork, no generic drills. Here's how the assessment works from start to finish.

Step 1

Before you arrive

You'll choose a sport, your athlete's age group, and the development need, then complete a short intake so your instructor is prepared.

Step 2

During the assessment

A focused session screening movement, evaluating mechanics, and capturing a clear performance baseline.

Step 3

After the assessment

Your instructor builds and reviews a personalized 4-week development plan, delivered to you with clear next steps.

Biomechanics screening

A slow-motion, frame-by-frame breakdown of your athlete's swing or delivery — joint by joint, checkpoint by checkpoint — added to the written report.It's the why behind the numbers — and the biggest difference between an M4P assessment and a stopwatch.

Measured, Not Guessed

We capture real data — so progress is real

Velocity, mechanics, movement — the assessment captures a clear baseline with the same tools used to develop college and pro athletes. That baseline is what every plan and every re-test is built on.

The M4P Process

Our proven, proprietary development process

The same structured path every M4P athlete follows — built to produce measurable, documented growth.

1

Movement & Skill Screen

We start with how the athlete actually moves — a screen of mechanics, mobility, and athleticism specific to their position and sport.

2

Skill & Mechanics Evaluation

Hitting, throwing, fielding, or pitching is evaluated against M4P's development framework to find the real limiters — not just symptoms.

3

Baseline & Data Capture

We capture a clear baseline so progress is measurable, not a guess. This becomes the athlete's starting line.

4

Personalized 4-Week Plan

Each athlete leaves with a structured 4-week development plan built around their assessment — reviewed and approved by their instructor.

5

Private Instruction

The plan comes to life in focused private sessions, with coaching that keeps the athlete accountable to the work.

6

Re-Test & Track Progress

We re-test against the baseline so families see real, documented growth — and the next plan is built on it.

What You Actually Get

Inside the written evaluation

Every assessment ends in a written report — here's the actual page map. Film first, then up to three named priority fixes each anchored to a specific frame, then the four-week program built from them, then the mental side. (Sample structure shown — every report is built from your athlete's own session.)

We first signed up with Connor in the Spring, within 3 lessons, my son was seeing the ball much better and making solid contact at the plate. … My son was on the verge of leaving baseball, before we met Coach Connor. Now every week, he happily asks “do we still have my lesson this Friday?”

Our son is definitely hitting the ball with more power and further than he ever has, but most importantly, he is stepping up to the plate with confidence! His whole demeanor shifted after his first session with Connor and M4P.

From day one, it was completely obvious that Andrew operates with a “kids-first” mentality. He has a gift for balancing high-level athletic training with a supportive, encouraging, and trusting environment where ballplayers truly learn and thrive. If you get the opportunity to have Coach Andrew work with your child, jump on it.
