This is a fun drill that allows players to get a lot of swings in a very short period of time.
Equipment
Wiffle Balls (15-20)
Bats (2)
Ball Bucket
Throw down bases/Cones
Gloves (optional)
Description
This drill can include up to 15 players.
Players are usually set-up as follows; 2 players hitting, 2 players catching behind the hitters, 1 player feeding tennis balls to the coach, and the rest in the field gathering balls.
Players rotate (in pairs) from the field, to catching behind the hitters, to hitting, and finally back to the field.
After coach has thrown a ball to one hitter, he/she immediately throws the next pitch to the other hitter.
Players rotate after each group has had 10-15 quality swings.
Tips
The coach or pitcher should concentrate on giving the batters good pitches to hit.
Even though an "L-Screen" is not mandatory, it is important for the coach to try and turn away from the pitch after he/she has delivered it.
It is sometimes a good idea to have a pre-set hitting order to avoid confusion between players over who will be the next group to hit.
