Quick and Easy Softball Drills

Take a look at this submission from Heather. A great example of quick and easy softball drills that can work with all age groups.

From Heather…
My girls love this softball drill we call “Around the Field” -

You need a cut-off 2nd basemen, a cut-off short stop and a catcher, the rest of the team lines up in right field. The softball coach stands at first base and hits a grounder to right field. The first person in line fields the grounder, throws to the cut-off second basemen. Then heads back for a long fly ball to centerfield. The same person fields that ball and throws directly to 2nd base, then heads to left field to field a short fly to left – fields and throws to the cut-off short stop or directly to home depending on how deep they are when they field.

This softball throwing drill works fielding, cut-offs, calling for the ball for those in-between balls, and throwing; all in one great softball drill.

The first person in line goes to 2nd – the 2nd basemen goes to short, the shortstop goes to catcher, and the catcher brings me the ball as they head to the back of the line in right field. Hope you all enjoy this one as much as my girls do!
