Fastpitch Hitting Drills – Bear Bop

Chris from Iowa sent in a request for more fastpitch hitting drills he could use with his team. Here’s a softball drill sent in by Denise.

BEAR BOP

We place two buckets stacked at home with a stuffed bear on the top.

The girls split into two teams.

Each line gets hit a ball and must throw at the bear/buckets.

The team receives 1 point if they hit the bucket and the bear falls, and 5 points if they hit the bear off the top of the bucket.

After going through each line twice, the winning team receives some kind of a prize like bubblegum or candy.

This is the drill we close out practice with normally, and they always look forward to it.
