  • Developing Dynamic Outfielders
    OUTFIELD CORNERSTONE ! " ! ! ! ! Developing Dynamic Outfielders! ! ! Copyright 2014 © Cornerstone Coaching Academy "1 OUTFIELD CORNERSTONE ! " ! ! Introduction! If you attend most youth, travel, high school, or even college practices you will likely observe that outfield practice consists of outfielders standing in a line while a coach hits fungo fly balls to them. While this activity is not without merit, there are many nuisances of playing outfield that are generally overlooked by coaches. We simply assume that if a player can catch a fly ball, they can play the outfield. While catching fly balls is a sizable portion of what outfielders will do, many teams leave outs on the field, give up extra bases, and runs because they lack a detailed outfield plan. This course is designed to give coaches from youth through high school, and college a ready made plan to be implemented in full or blended with what you already do. ! ! The mistake many youth coaches make! The path to success in youth baseball may be to put your weakest players in the outfield, and more specifically, right field. The ball just doesn’t leave the infield that often, and most plays take place in the infield. Putting your weakest players in the outfield will ensure that the ball doesn’t get hit to them very often, but you will be doing all of the players on your team a great disservice. ! ! The obvious reason is that all youth players should get an opportunity to play the infield, but there is an unintended consequence for the better players on the team who are pigeon holed into playing the infield only.
