  • Defensive Responsibilities
    DEFENSIVE RESPONSIBILITIES http://www.baseballpositive.com/ "Baseball is a Game of Movement". This is a foreign concept for most youth baseball and softball players. If we could dig into the brain of ballplayers ages 5-12 right next to the idea of 'Baseball' we would find the phrase 'a game where you stand around a lot and don't do anything' (and we wonder why participation is dwindling). When the game is played properly each player on defense is moving (sprinting) the moment the ball comes off the bat. We can do a better job of teaching kids how to play the game. This section is dedicated to helping coaches teach kids their defensive responsibilities on each play regardless of where the ball is hit or where the runners are. Before digging in, let's add something to the old coaching comment, "Be sure you know what to do if the ball is hit to you". But the ball is hit to one player; what about the other eight? The must also teach our players, "Know what you are going to do when the ball is NOT hit to you". The first part of this section outlines in clear and simple terms, the 'Rules for Defensive Movement'. These rules form the foundation for the drills and concepts in the rest of this section. Some of the plays found here are not consistent with player responsibilities on the larger 80' or 90' diamonds. The game on the smaller diamond is slower and the players are not as strong. These facts combined with the shorter distance between the players and the bases makes this game quite different than the one played on the large diamond.

  • Xvi: 3-Man Mechanics Standard Operating Procedures
    XVI: 3-MAN MECHANICS STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES – 3-MAN CREWS ABBREVIATIONS: The plate umpire will be referred to as U1, the first-base umpire as U2, and the third-base umpire will be referred to as U3. It is assumed that in all play situations, U1 will start out behind the plate. There are four basic positions for the base umpires: positions A, B, C and D. These positions are described as follows, and will remain unchanged, regardless of the number of outs: Position A — Both feet in foul territory, approximately 10 feet behind the first baseman. Position B — At the infield cutout near second base, first-base side of the infield, feet parallel to the pitcher's plate, able to move to cover a pickoff attempt at second base. Position C — Halfway between the mound and second base, third-base side of the infield, feet parallel to the pitcher's plate, able to move to cover a pickoff attempt or attempted steal at either second base or third base. Position D — Both feet in foul territory, approximately 10 feet behind the third baseman. If covering a base with runners on, Positions A and D are modified somewhat in that the umpire on the baseline will move up closer to the base, still in foul territory, in order to get an angle on the pickoff attempt and line up the pitcher's foot crossing over the back edge of the pitcher's plate. GENERAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES: U1: 1. Call balls and strikes. 2. Rule fair/foul on any batted ball that is played on or comes to rest in front of the front edge of the base down the first-base line with U2 in Position A and down the third-base line with U3 in position D.

  • 60-Mm MORTAR, M224
    CHAPTER 3 60-mm MORTAR, M224 The 60-mm mortar, M224, reacts quickly to support infantrymen by engaging the target first. This allows infantrymen to confront the enemy while supporting the battle plan. The mortar can be fired accurately with or without a fire direction center. Section I. SQUAD AND SECTION ORGANIZATION AND DUTIES This section discusses the organization and duties of the 60-mm mortar squad and section. 3-1. ORGANIZATION If the mortar section is to operate quickly and effectively in accomplishing its mission, mortar squad members must be proficient in individually assigned duties. Correctly applying and performing these duties enables the mortar section to perform as an effective fighting team. The section leader commands the section and supervises the training of the elements. He uses the chain of command to assist him in effecting his command and supervising duties. 3-2. DUTIES The mortar squad consists of three soldiers. Each squad member is cross-trained to perform all duties involved in firing the mortar. The positions and principal duties are as follows: a. The squad leader is in position to best control the mortar squad. He is positioned to the right of the mortar, facing the barrel. He is also the FDC. b. The gunner is on the left side of the mortar where he can manipulate the sight, elevating gear handle, and traversing assembly wheel. He places firing data on the sight and lays the mortar for deflection and elevation. Assisted by the squad leader (or ammunition bearer), he makes large deflection shifts by shifting the bipod assembly.

  • MCWP 3-15.2 Chapter 8: Special Considerations for the 60-Mm
    CHAPTER 8 SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR THE 60-mm MORTAR SECTION This chapter presents special considerations for the tactical employment of the 60- mm mortar section by airborne, air assault, light infantry, and ranger companies. It does not stand alone. It is dependent on the rest of this manual and FM 7-10. 8-1. LIGHT MORTARS ON THE BATTLEFIELD The 60-mm mortar, M224, provides the mortar sections of the light infantry, air assault, airborne, and ranger infantry battalions an effective, efficient, and flexible weapon. a. The rifle company commander depends on light mortars to supply close fire support, suppression, smoke, and illumination. Light mortars are the most responsive and versatile sources of indirect fire support available. Their maneuverability, high rate of fire, low minimum-range restrictions, lethality, and proximity to the commander ensure the versatility, reliability, and responsiveness needed in light infantry operations. Because of the demands placed on FA assets by counterfire, suppression, interdiction, and the employment of special munitions in nontraditional artillery roles, infantry leaders must plan and train well to ensure that light mortar sections provide the needed support in combat. b. High-angle trajectories and multioption fuzes allow light mortars to effectively attack targets-- · In defilade on hilly, mountainous, or rolling terrain. · Under jungle canopies. · On marshy or snow-covered terrain. · Behind buildings and on rooftops and top floors. The short minimum range of the M224 makes the mortar well suited for close protective fires against an assaulting enemy, for block-to-block fighting in cities, and combat over close terrain with restricted visibility. c.

    WEAPONS AND ORDINANCE -- PS106IS Primer (v 1.0) 1 For details, see http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/index.html Airpower Overview Aviation forces of the Air Force, Navy, and Marine Corps—composed of fighter/attack, conventional bomber, and specialized support aircraft—provide a versatile striking force capable of rapid employment worldwide. These forces can quickly gain and sustain air superiority over regional aggressors, permitting rapid air attacks on enemy targets while providing security to exploit the air for logistics, command and control, intelligence, and other functions. Fighter/attack aircraft, operating from both land bases and aircraft carriers, combat enemy fighters and attack ground and ship targets. Conventional bombers provide an intercontinental capability to strike surface targets on short notice. The specialized aircraft supporting conventional operations perform functions such as airborne early warning and control, suppression of enemy air defenses, reconnaissance, surveillance, and combat rescue. In addition to these forces, the U.S. military operates a variety of transport planes, aerial- refueling aircraft, helicopters, and other support aircraft.

  • Catching Thrown Balls a Fielder May Receive a Ball When Covering a Base Or Not Covering a Base
    144 Coaching Youth Softball Backstop (continued) attempts to block each pitch. Catcher scores one point for each success- ful block. Throwing out runners—The fielder plays shortstop. A runner on first tries to steal second as the pitcher pitches. The catcher throws to the shortstop covering second, who tries to tag the runner out (see figure 8.57b). Do this play three times. The catcher scores one point for each throw to second that arrives in time to get the runner out (the point is scored even if the shortstop drops the ball at second or misses the tag). Blocking the plate—The runner is on third base. The catcher (or you) throws a ground ball to the fielder, who is playing shortstop (see figure 8.57c). The runner breaks for home and tries to score. The catcher blocks the plate and attempts to tag out the runner. Do this play three times, scoring one point for each successful tag. Fielding a bunt and throwing to first base—A runner is at home and the fielder is at first base (see figure 8.57d). Roll a bunt down the first- or third-base line; the runner heads for first base as the ball leaves your hand. The catcher, starting from a crouched position, springs up as the ball is rolled and the runner takes off for first. The catcher at- tempts to throw the runner out.
