Simple Baseball Drills

This is just a test, if it had been a real emergency, you would have been advised to head for cover!

It’s time for me to give back to baseball. I’ve been lucky enough to have been coached by some great people. And now this blog is my small way to not only put on paper what I know about the game but also have anyone (and everyone) contribute.

I have been playing organized (and unorganized) baseball since I was 8 years old. That’s 46 years, and this summer I played in a “30 and older” league. I’m lucky that I can still play and I hope to play next summer as well.

I coached baseball for 15 years, taking my kids through the little and senior leagues. I loved it. The one thing that I wish was out there was some good information on drills and practice tips. That’s what this blog is for. It’s also for any topic that our contributors want to talk about as long as it’s about baseball.

So welcome and I hope you find what you’re looking for or contribute so someone else gains.

If you Google “baseball drills” you get a couple hundred thousand results.  My hope is to be able to provide reliable information, whether that be in the form of drills or reviews of products I’ve found to be useful, online or otherwise.

I would also like to recommend other online baseball drill sites.  My goal is to provide as much information to the coaching community as possible.  I would hope that if coaches find the information useful they will come back to see what’s new and exciting.

One of my goals is that other coaches will post their best drills as well.  And I want this site to be about more than just drills.  From playing time to handling disappointment on the field, I want as much information as possible.  I look at youth baseball as one of the major influences on a young person’s life.  Sports relates to life, it teaches us how to win and how to lose.
