Zachery Zinck accepts Badlands Baseball Academy assistant coaching position

The Badlands Baseball Academy is pleased to announce Badlands Alumni Zachery Zinck has accepted the position of Assistant Coach for the 2021 – 2022 season. Zack’s home town is BridgeWater, Nova Scotia. He is well known in Atlantic Canada as he holds a number of athletic achievements as well as most recently as an assistant coach of the Nova Scotia 17U Team winning the 2019 Canada Cup. He has attended Genesee Community College in Batavia, New York and then earned an Athletic Scholarship to Ave Maria University in Florida. He is currently provincially certified through the National Coaching Certification Program (NCCP).

Over the past two years he has become a specialist in gaining pitchers velocities and hitters exit velocities which are crucial for college recruiting. His style of coaching is described as versatile with players and that not every player should have the same program. He recognizes each player is different and the program needs to be built for that.

Zack’s passion for the game of Baseball is sited in his words:

“I love being at the ball field. I would like to give back to the game that has given me so much, and maybe get some kids to love the game as much as I. Over the years I have acquired a vast amount of knowledge in baseball and baseball related topics and would like to pass it on to the new group of kids coming through the system. Going through college I really think I can help benefit young adults excel at the game of baseball and use it as a tool to get an education. “

Welcome Zack Zinck to the Badlands Baseball Academy!
