ED HEARN replied to Kevin J. Lewis's discussion Leadership in Catchers - Can we coach it? in the group Catchers and Catching Coaches
"Being a former catcher, (and a "reserved kid who had to learn to take charge of a game")he following is how I've taught our young catchers to take control of a game. ...I would sit behind the backstop during a game or near the catcher…"

More About Me:
“The essence of Hearn's message is encouraging people to move away from self-centeredness to serving others, in whatever form that may take. He believes that attitude will make for stronger businesses, stronger families, stronger self-worth and a stronger country. You'll never see a bust of Ed Hearn in Cooperstown. But in a humanitarian sense of the word, he belongs in anyone's Hall of fame.”
Hall Of Fame Magazine - December, 2006

“From the “Penthouse to the Outhouse and Back”

From the “Penthouse” of a 1986 World Series Championship under the bright lights of New York City to the “Outhouse” of a premature career ending shoulder injury, three life-saving kidney transplants, dialysis, thirty radiation treatments for a bout with cancer, the aid of a breathing machine each night, a $3,000 IV treatment each month, and 40 pills per day, Ed Hearn has comeback with a courage, faith and determination that speaks volumes as we face life's curves. Having been to the plate in The Bottom Of The Ninth in the game of life numerous times, this 48 year old author and speaker’s real life story leaves audiences remembering him not so much as an athlete, but more as a man who has had a lasting impact on their lives. Ed is also the first and only, current or former athlete from our country’s top professional sports leagues to be awarded the prestigious Certified Speaking Profession (CSP) designation from the National Speakers Association. He is the author of Conquering Life’s Curves: Baseball, Battles & Beyond and the Founder of a KS 501c3 nonprofit called The Bottom of the Ninth: Where Character Counts.

Hi Ed,

Great to see you here! Glad you're a survivor!
Your story is so motivational, and your message of giving back seems so strong, I was just wondering... have you ever considered helping to promote the growth of women's baseball?

Hope to chat with you, and...welcome to Checkswing!

Best,

Tiff
