10. Commitment To Students
Commitment Are you aware that every baseball/softball student has a follow up to their lessons at a game? Coach
Scoglio goes to a minimum of one game (sometimes more) for each student and films him/her in action, under real game conditions. This is a commitment to film 1-3 at bats for analysis and future recommendations, and at
no additional cost to the student.
This kind of unparalleled commitment is unprecedented because it is time consuming and cost prohibitive. The fee for a quality instructor, for his time alone, to film a single player in a complete game can cost in excess of $200.00, not to mention travel time. This is available to every student with a current lesson package free of charge.
Other facts and programs you may not be aware of:
- Discounts for individual lessons for students with current lesson package.
- Incentives during lessons for students to win additional instruction time.
- Student referral and incentive program that awards students with free lessons.
- Instructional hitting tournaments to test skills under pressure and awarded with free lessons.Baseball/Softball conditioning programs (year round) team and individual.
- Adult instructional hitting program for high school coaches, parent-coaches, and instructors.
- Custom designed programs for individuals, groups and team specifics.Individual, group, and team lessons at any local designated field.
- Team filming and analysis of practices and/or games.Students with current lesson packages receive a free lesson on their birthday.

STAR SPANGLE BANNER LYRICS
O! say can you see by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there;
O! say does that star-spangled banner yet wave,
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
STAR SPANGLE BANNER POEM
STAR SPANGLE BANNER POEM
.
O! say can you see by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there;
O! say does that star-spangled banner yet wave,
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
.
On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner, O! long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
.
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion,
A home and a country should leave us no more?
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
.
O! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation.
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave![12]
.
.
In indignation over the start of the Civil War, Oliver Wendell Holmes[13] added a fifth stanza to the song in 1861 which appeared in songbooks of the era.[14]
.
When our land is illumined with liberty's smile,
If a foe from within strikes a blow at her glory,
Down, down with the traitor that tries to defile
The flag of the stars, and the page of her story!
By the millions unchained,
Who their birthright have gained
We will keep her bright blazon forever unstained;
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave,
While the land of the free is the home of the brave.
.
[edit] Alternative lyrics In a version hand-written by Francis Scott Key in 1840, the third line reads "Whose bright stars and broad stripes, through the clouds of the fight,".[15]
