8u Rookie Baseball Drills and Plays

My base running drills are numbered in order of which I like to teach them.  After teaching 1 or 2 in a practice, I will move on to another during the next practice.  Always before teaching a new one, I refresh on the ones that were taught the practice before.  This can be done in the final 15 minutes of a practice, and is also good for conditioning.  Again, this is geared for 8u baseball, but can be used for older and more experience players.  Baserunning can make a difference between a win and a loss.  If a runner can learn to take a peek at the ball, watch his base coach, and at times, make his own decision, runners can advance, and score more runs.  Smart, disciplined base running is important. 

 

Here is my baseball drills and plays page.  Most of these are geared towards 8u rookie baseball, but many can be used for all ages and levels.  Most can be altered for your use.  If you like them, and can use them, great.  If not, that's ok too.  If you have something to add, please send it to me at ericaldhizer(AT)aldhizer.com
