If you’re looking for [tag]softball infield drills[/tag], give this one a try. This one is great and works on the one of the tougher parts of the infielders, the mental game.

There is no time for day dreaming with this one or watching the other players.   To really get the pace going have your [tag]softball coach[/tag]es pick up the pace of the hitting.   Emphasize all aspects here: the throw, good and sharp, the fielding with the emphases on the quick release, two hands.   We will time our players and get them to release the [tag]softball[/tag] within 2 seconds.   The best part is about 5 minutes to each position and it keeps all players working and thinking:

Infield [tag]softball drill[/tag]: (2 hitters) all fielders at bases and SS

Hitting coaches should take a position with one to the right of home plate and one to the left of home plate:

1st round: 1st coach hits to 3rd who throws to 2nd with 2nd baseman covering
2nd coach hits to SS who throws to 1st

2nd round: 1st coach hits to 3rd who throws to 1st
2nd coach hits to 2nd who throws to SS covering 2nd

3rd round: 1st coach hits to SS who throws to 2nd with 2nd baseman covering
2nd coach hits to 1st who throws to 3rd

4th round: 1st coach hits to 2nd base who throws to 1st
2nd coach hits to SS who throws 3rd
