In today’s video, we will be exploring some of the most common softball hitting problems that all players experience, and how to fix them.
We have all coached players who experienced one – or more! – of these problems at some point in time:
- Stiff Front Arm Upon Swing
- Front Shoulder Pulling Out
- Rotating Away from the Ball
- and others!
By incorporating the proper exercises and drills, you can help your players correct these frustrating softball hitting issues, and a winning form will be part of each of your players game!
For example, a very common problem for many players is a “stiff front arm on contact”. This is when the left arm straightens out first, bringing the barrel away from the home plate area, causing a longer path to the ball.
There are two great solutions to this issue:
- Solution 1: Make sure that the player stays relaxed with the front arm as they come forward, and work on unlocking elbow and wrist at the same time.
- Solutions 2: Carry out a high volume of dry swings, where they work on snapping their hip open and keeping that front arm bent.
This is but a sample of the many tips and invaluable information you will find in today’s video post!
