From Coach to Coach

Now, the game is really on. The kids are allowed to pitch, and in most leagues they can steal bases, too. For nine and ten-year-old ballplayers, it's really starting to look like organized baseball. Parents and players expect a little more from the coach at this age level. You'll need to teach skills on pitching and catching, along with more advanced hitting and fielding drills. This guide will help you build solid practice plans, get ready for game day, and give you a clear path to follow for a successful season. Take a deep breath, Coach. Read the guide, follow the plans and you'll be ready. There are many baseball guides out there - what makes this one different? From Coach to Coach guides are age-specific, and include only the essential drills appropriate for your players. The guides focus on a manageable number of practice plans for each skill category - base running, throwing, hitting, and fielding - you won't be buried with hundreds of drills, wondering which ones work best. The guides include quick start practice plans, season checklists, and other resources that you can use to get practicing today (or as soon as the snow melts). In short, the guides include everything a new or veteran coach will need to get ready for the baseball season ahead. From Coach to Coach, I wish you a successful and enjoyable season!All materials are available for download at CoachtoCoachBooks.com.
