    SOFTBALL DRILLS AND MODIFIED GAMES This booklet has been developed as a resource guide for coaches. It has the detailed descriptions of drills and modified games listed in the National and Academy Coaches Handbook. The booklet is in two parts: 1. Softball Drills 2. Modified Games The softball drills are grouped into sections related to Offense and Defense. They are only a small selection of many drills that are used in the game of softball. No coach should feel they should only use the ones listed. You are only limited by your imagination! The modified games are designed to compliment the skills needed to play softball effectively. But most of all they are fun and add variety to any training session. The modified games can be adjusted to suit all age groups. Enjoy!

Wayne Durbridge Simon Roskvist Paula McGovern Chet Gray Marty Rubinoff Level 1 & 2 Softball Manuals Karen Marr VSA & VBA Games Booklets SOFTBALL DRILLS BATTING The key to successful batting is practice. Batting drills allow the batter to perform many swings in a short period of time which is important because muscle memory depends on repetition, and each drill helps the batter to focus on one particular aspect of the swing, thereby accelerating the learning.

  • 3 Fielder Drills by Position
    3 FIELDER DRILLS BY POSITION 42 Chapter 3 3-1 PITCHER FIELDING DRILLS The pitcher is the fifth infielder covering the middle of the diamond. The highest percentage of batted balls go through the center of the diamond. Hitters are told when they fall behind in the count, shorten the bat and think "middle." If the hitters are thinking middle and are hitting that way, the pitcher must work hard at being that fifth infielder. It is scary to think that the pitcher is only 60 feet from the hitter, consequently, his reaction time to the batted ball has to be better than that of the third baseman. The third baseman's position is called the "hot corner," the pitcher's defensive position probably should be called "suicide alley." In pitching mechanics drills we placed a great deal of emphasis on the pitcher's glove hand and the finish position in the delivery of the ball. The glove hand must be in front and ready for the ball. If pitchers are careless and let their glove hands fly behind them, they are going to get seriously hurt somewhere along the way. Pitching absolutes are: • have good control • keep the runners on 1st base by having a great pick-off move • be an outstanding fielder • concentrate • concentrate some more These "absolutes" can be taught by emphasizing the following drills. P-1. DRILL: TWO MAN PEPPER Purpose: To continually play the ball off the bat. I believe that if it is played properly pepper is the best drill in baseball. Players and Equipment Needed: Two pitchers, gloves, a bat and several baseballs.

  • To Keep the Kids Engaged and Having Fun Playing Baseball. the Younger
    YMCA Baseball Outfield Games and Clinics Purpose: To keep the kids engaged and having fun playing baseball. The younger the kids are, the more they need active learning experiences; so, the more game-like we can make these teaching sessions, the better the kids will learn, as they will be having fun! Sharks and Minnows Tag with Baseball Glove o The kids take turns as the shark, trying to tag the other kids. The kids need to stay in a designated area you set for them. The key teaching point to this game is that the kids should learn to squeeze a ball in their glove, so that it does not fall out when they tag the other kids. 500 o Roll the ball or throw the ball to the kids (if they are able to catch well), calling out a number, ie. 100, 200, etc. The player to successfully catch or stop the ball and throw it back to you receives that amount of points. The first to get 500 points wins and moves to throw or roll the ball to the others. The key teaching points in this session are the correct mechanics of catching/stopping and throwing the ball. The ball should be stopped/caught with an open glove; and, secured with the throwing hand. The ball should be thrown by taking the ball back above the shoulder and stepping into the throw with the opposite foot. Races/Relays Along the Foul Line o Match up the kids in pairs or teams to sprint along the foul line to the foul pole.
