Youth Baseball Drill
When researching for a youth baseball practice plan, I ran into this video on YouTube. I liked the approach from this coach because for a new player catching a ball can probably be a little scary. The coach makes learning how to catch a baseball safe and fun for the youngster.

I think it was interesting that he started with block instead of catch. That makes it easier to have success for the young child which in turn builds their confidence. I would have never thought about starting this way but it is a great idea. thanks for sharing that video.
