Coach Bernhardt leads this Little League Tee Ball series on the basics of hitting. Remember his words as you progress through this series, that as a young athlete, there's nothing more fun than hitting.
As a coach, you want your players to have success at the plate, so be sure to set the tee correctly in height and position. When your player makes contact, they'll remember that, and they'll want to keep playing.
Little League, Baseball Factory and SKLZ bring you this introduction to throwing in Tee Ball. Learn how to work with young players to develop a good throw.
Hamstrings and glutes both contribute to hip stability and lower body strength. Improve the strength and stability of your hamstrings and glutes while also challenging your balance.
It doesn't matter which sport you play. Having a strong foundation will make you a better athlete. Incorporate these 4 movements into your routine for maximum balance and stability in the hips, knees and ankles.
Challenge your balance with the Single Leg Balance on stable ground, and then on an unstable surface like the Balanz Pad. You should feel it in your hips and ankles.
To develop stronger, more stable legs practice the Linear Hop Drill. This exercise creates single leg stability and decreases the risk of injury to the hips, legs and ankles.
