David Klein is a nationally recognized, award-winning transformational coach and experience designer in the baseball and softball world. His distinct approach marries traditional coaching with modern methodologies, tailored to resonate with today’s youth. As a former college baseball player and coach, he laid the foundation for Legends Baseball and Softball in 2009. From its humble beginnings as a summer collegiate baseball team and youth camp, Legends Baseball has grown exponentially to become the largest club baseball program on the West Coast. Impressively, it stands alone as the only U.S. franchise specializing in baseball and softball, producing over 50 players who have signed MLB contracts, and nurturing 3 major leaguers and 2 Olympians.

David’s transformative influence extends beyond the field. He’s profoundly impacted thousands of youth players through his “Legendary Life Playbook,” an experiential 10 week guide that instills vital life lessons through sport. His recent creation, SpeedBall™, introduces a fresh approach to baseball and softball, involving three teams of five players competing and rotating across the field. Over the past decade, David has been a beacon of knowledge, sharing his insights with Little League coaches through live clinics and online platforms. As we approach 2024, David eagerly anticipates launching a premier certification program for youth baseball and softball coaching, further solidifying his commitment to the sport and its future leaders.
