What Is Louisville Slugger Hitting Science Center Swing Analysis
The Swing Analysis, performed by the LSHSC Staff, will give each a player an in-depth look into their biomechanics throughout their swing, reveal the player’s foot profile, and identify their unique ground force tendencies. Using the latest optic based kinematic sequencing software and backend analytical models while consulting with former and current professional baseball staff allows Slugger Science to objectively identify efficiencies and deficiencies and provide relevant tools and drills that will help improve as an athlete.
- Professional-level analysis: Players will be evaluated under the same quality and standards as the Louisville Slugger Pros. Compare your swing efficiency to that of a Big Leaguer.
- Personalized feedback: The report will give you a detailed understanding of your strengths and weaknesses as an athlete, allowing you to tailor your training to meet your specific needs.
- Improved performance: With a clear understanding of your biomechanics and areas for improvement, you’ll be able to make targeted changes to your training routine and improve your performance on the field.

What is the Problem that Louisville Slugger Solves?
Louisville Slugger is a true player development program starting from the ground up. Our training begins with a proper medically-integrated foot scan. By identifying the athlete’s foot profile, we are then able to train and/or correct based on the individual’s baseline biomechanics.
Why Should a High School Player, Who Wants to Play College Baseball, Invest in This Solution?
The Louisville Slugger Hitting Science Center’s (LSHSC) unique approach stands above the rest. LSHSC’s focus, to help players elevate to the next level with our unique approach from the ground up, allows us to make adjustments and corrections based on the individual’s biomechanical makeup. In addition, our partnership with Signing Day Sports allows athletes to be exposed to hundreds of college coaches and recruiters nationwide. Each athlete currently receives one free month of a SDS subscription.
What Does Each Player Receive After He Complete the Analysis?
Each player receives a LSHSC Player Profile with the data that is collected from the camp with his own Uplift Labs MOCAP Report. Moreover, a link to set up his profile will be emailed to him once their data is in our system. The player profile link will be emailed to each student-athlete within 24 hours of the completion of the event.
What Do Players Do With This information Once Received?
Review it. Share with their coach. Share with scouts/recruiters. Don’t share it based on how good/bad it is? Explore more options to continue to evaluate their play. Its their information to do what they will with it. It is designed to give unbiased feedback to their current mechanics. What’s holding them back or what’s going to keep them moving the needle forward. How will it make them better? We will have identified any deficiencies and efficiencies (strengths and weaknesses) from a biomechanical standpoint. Are there any other costs associated with the analysis once camp ends. Their player profile, dashboard, Foot Profile Report and Motion Capture report are included. Any add-ons (Full Swing Analysis, Scientific Bat Fitting, Workouts, Player Programming, LS products, SDS full Subscriptions, etc…) will be available at an additional cost.
