Baseball Hitting Drills
Coaches teach hitting in different ways. The drills that are on this page can for the most part be modified based on the particular hitting style you are working on with a player. If you don't have a particular hitting philosophy, I encourage you to visit the baseball hitting instruction area of the website. I'm very proud of the content in that section and believe it can help you understand the different aspects of the baseball swing and hopefully inprove your coaching. You may or may not agree with everything there but I think there is something for everyone.

If you would like some tips on how to implement your youth baseball drills during practice, please visit our Baseball Drills - Coaching Tips page. It's important to remember that baseball practice drills can get somewhat monotonous if your not careful. Try to turn drills into fun games and competitions whenever possible. Not only will the kids enjoy it more, they'll also work harder at the skill.
