AHD Academy is an online hitting academy for baseball and fastpitch softball players ages 10 to college, led by BK in Scottsdale, Arizona.

What an MLB player, a high school coach, a parent of 2 college players & a college catcher say.
I like what Coach Kehoe teaches and how he teaches so much, I made him my hitting coach. The online, remote version of his program has helped our hitters so much! Take my word for it, I spent a lot of time in Big Leagues, this program is elite!
Working with hitting coach Billy Kehoe has been a game-changer for my three sons. He is truly one of the most knowledgeable hitting coaches in the United States, with a deep understanding of approach, swing mechanics, and overall athleticism. It is so amazing to see how each hitter progresses and their performance improves so quickly.
I have hit with Coach Kehoe since I was 10. He is the primary reason I am playing college baseball at a high level. Just do what he says and you will hit so much better! The online program allows us to communicate no matter where I am!
