Building Mental Toughness
Player Development coach Steve Tambora is leading the baseball team through preseason workouts
In his 13th year as an assistant player development coach at Georgia Tech, Steve Tamborra oversees the highly-touted strength and conditioning program for the Georgia Tech baseball team.
Since his arrival over a decade ago, Tamborra has been responsible for the development and implementation of strength training regimes of many student-athletes that have gone on to play professional baseball, with several of those athletes returning to Georgia Tech during their offseason to continue training with him.
Tamborra joined the Tech staff in November, 1999, after five years in a similar capacity at Florida State where he worked with the baseball and football teams from 1995-99.
He earned a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Fitness from Florida State in 1994 and a Master of Science in Athletic Administration from Florida State in 1996.
Tamborra is a certified strength and conditioning coach by the Collegiate Strength and Condition Coaches Association, a certified strength and conditioning specialist by the National Strength and Conditioning Association, a certified health/fitness instructor by the American College of Sports Medicine and a certified club coach by USA Weightlifting. He has written one book, Complete Conditioning for Baseball, which was published in late 2007.
Tamborra is married to the former Stacy Venable, a pitcher for the Florida State softball team from 1997-99. They have a six-year old daughter, Malayna, and three-year old twins, Austin and Payton.
