Not much happening here 29 degrees and raining. Ice has put a damper on preseason coaching lol.
I am rolling a teeball down the hallway and allowing him to field it.
Two hands indoor drill:
Make sure no lamps are close by. The way I do this is first without a glove. This emphasizes putting his pinky fingers together to catch the ball..then we alligator it (one hand over the other to secure the ball and make for a quicker release-he just doesnt know it yet) after a few rounds of this we go to the glove.
The main benefit of this is for a teeballer to learn to use both hands and some hand eye coordination. I have seen several older children not having this basic skill after a few years of playing so start now. Its also a good drill for kids up to 10 years old in my opinion.
