Coach Patrick Murphy of the University of Alabama Softball team has referred to David Elliott as the Assistant Pitching coach to the stars. This is a reference to David’s relationship to Ernie Parker.
David is an Ernie Parker Certified Instructor. He is also an Ernie Parker Certified Clinician. David has done pitching and hitting clinics with Coach Parker all over North America including such places as Sitka, Alaska, Honolulu, Hawaii, Toronto, Canada, The University of Notre Dame and the University of Alabama. David has also done clinics with Lisa Fernandez and Amanda Freed Collegiate All- Americans, National Champions and Team USA Gold medal winners.
David has coached and helped develop many girls that are now playing at the collegiate level. His teams have won National Championships and finished second at the national level several time. Some of these accomplishments include the USFA World Series Championship, Runner up at the NSA “A” nationals (twice) and an ISA National Championship.
David is currently working as Pitching Coach at The University of Alabama at Birmingham, a Division 1 school. He has served as a pitching and hitting consultant to several other schools, and is also a reference for college coaches looking for information on potential recruits. In addition to these activities he has also worked directly with the pitching staffs at the high school level where he help bring home several state championships.
Two of David’s current students are tied with two other girls for the AHSAA single game shrike out record.
David works well with the beginner as well as the advanced pitcher. He’s been doing private pitching and hitting lessons as well as clinics for over twelve years. The Ernie Parker influence is evident when it comes to David’s teaching techniques as well as his demeanor with the girls. He relates well with them and presents a positive atmosphere for instruction.
