EARLY ACTIVITY DRILL STARTS AT 5:15 (BELOW GOLD)
A fun Hitting Station or Early Activity Drill, Home Run Derby brings out coach's inner Chris Berman - back, back, back, back... GONE! Designed to be...Read More
Notes:
Whoever is not setting up: as long as we have a fence somewhere... rounds of 2 outs each, anything but a homer is an out. If the field is not conducive for HR derby, do WIFFLE CIRCLE... Coach Cheo will get that going.
PRACTICE STARTS AT 5:30 (BELOW BLACK)
Offered during the Olympics practice, the baserunning station involves up to five sprints for each athlete. Armed with a stopwatch and a score sheet...Read More
Notes:
TWEAK: If the guest coaches run this, we will tweak what's in the video: 2 groups, one at second, one at home... one kid at a time touches two bags, next kid doesn't go until his teammate touches both bases... first group to get all the way through wins! OTHERWISE, we can do what the team normally does, or a mix.
GroundBalls - No Goals is a station drill for use after ground ball fundamentals have been introduced. This drill is designed to train and develop infield...Read More
Notes:
MAJOR TWEAK: 3 level competition: tryout (with wiffles), training (with plastic balls), competition (with real balls). 2-3 rounds: 1st round- barehand, slow pace... 2nd/3rd round- rubber plate glove or real glove, medium to fast pace... once they field 3 in a row they go to the next "level". Then if there's time, break for 1 round of "dueling fungos": two teams, two nets, two coaches... team to field cleanly and throw into the net most, wins!
Stations (Groups rotate halfway through block)
Live BP
5:45-5:55 10 Minutes
MAY NEED TO DEMO THIS QUICK BEFOREHAND - WITH FENCE DRILL (SET UP NET ONE BAT LENGTH AWAY FROM HITTER - SO THEY'LL FEEL THEIR SWING GET BIG/LOOPY): 4 Groups, 3 rounds of 4 swings off machine/arm/tee - whatever's appropriate... last swing run to first, pick up coach, go to second if he says
Fundamentals: Ground Balls
5:55-6:05 10 Minutes
Defensive group: two coaches roaming with 1-2 balls, feed the kids surprise grounders and fly balls in between pitches - MAKE SURE THEY'RE PAYING ATTENTION TO THE LIVE HITTER AFTER THEY CATCH IT... Coaches feel free to move guys around to different positions so they can see from different angles...
Fundamentals: Hitting
6:05-6:15 10 Minutes
Tee station with Luis (preferably): 1 kid on the tee, 2 doing FENCE DRILL... Swing hard as you can without falling over.

Notes:
IF THERE'S TIME: FASTEST HR DERBY EVER - 2 OUTS EACH. PICK A FENCE. IF IT DOESN'T GO OVER, IT'S AN OUT. DO OR DIE. MOST HR WINS.
