Hitting
Cone & Tee Drill
Drill helps to train & develop a short path to the ball, fights a drooping barrel, and can help hitters catch up to good fastballs.
BP Reps: Soft Toss
Underhand toss to a hitter from close range. Sit on a bucket directly in front of the hitter, and control ball flight to desired location. 5-6 swings and rotate.
BP Reps: Wiffle Ball
Use Wiffle Balls anywhere on the field, with any tool (tee / soft toss / front toss / live arm), to teach any hitting fundamentals.

3 Step Hitting
Hitting drill focused on simple and clean footwork. Mark feet with three cones – 1) back foot; 2) front foot; and, 3) front-foot-stride. Stride & load (freeze), swing hard, hold finish (freeze). Then go no-stopping and use cones to control feet.
Virtual Reality
Imagine a world of training when our kids are old. This might be the biggest game-changer I learned of at the ABCA.
THE OFFENSE-ONLY PRACTICE
Every now and then you just gotta hit. Whether it’s a 4-practice “mix up” or a 10-practice full-fledged-fun itinerary, consider the Offense-Only practice plan.
Three pitches, three swings
Remove the overthinking mind from the batter’s box. It’s not welcome there!

It’s an anticipation thing…
