Just watched this video prepping for my first practice with 1st grade coach pitch fall ball this weekend, LOVE the the tire idea, but I need a tire. Just called a tire shop five minutes away, explained what I need, guy said if I can come by tonight, he'll hook me up with a scrap tire. I now have a free scrap tire in the trunk, ready for Saturday! Love it fellas, thank you!
This guy definitely loves his job. He has passion in baseball and not many more coaches like that. I hope to coach my sons first team and I’m definitely passionate, but I also want them to have as much fun as they can!
It obv doesn’t look as smooth as when the adults do it. However, nothing does when your dealing with 4-5 y.o but these drills are engaging, fun applicable to the sport( and other sports also like lateral movement and hand eye coordination) can get multiple kids involved(which is the most important thing when dealing with these young kids and especially with baseball which is typically the hardest to have multiple kids involved.
Same here, I just started on Day 1 of coaching the Tee Ball team and I restrained all the players from playing catch. I didn't want anyone getting hurt and not having fun. All of this is spot on advice and I will surely implement these drills into our practice routine.
This is great for teams that have access to this stuff. I would love to see barebone practice with tall grass. I get one practice a week in tall grass. No dirt time.
THANK YOU! This is perfect as I'm a newly elected coach for my 4yo T-Ball team at the Y. I'm getting some of the Smush balls too and for those looking, they're cheaper on here than amazon.
I’m new to this coaching tee ball thing. I need all of the help I can get. My son is 5 and he wants to play but the county was short coaches so my wife convinced me to step up. Thank you for this video!
My son just started Tball i need help!!! 😅 Its been years since ive done softball and my daughter is competition cheer never touched a ball !!! 😅 Hope this can help my kiddo thank you
Question for you t ball enthusiasts. My child was put on the pitchers mound. Is this considered a spot for a player who shows potential, or the latter? Just trying to figure out what the coaches think of my child.
@@garygoodson3673 Sees something in a good way or a bad way? They did say she was the only one who could catch a ground ball. Sure enough, she stopped everything her first game. They are so little though, so I wasn’t sure. When I started in pinto I was put there as well. I just wasn’t sure if it was a negative way of treating a girl player. Didn’t hurt me much though lol, I was on second base in no time. Then moved to short stop when I began softball.
Let’s let the 4 and 5 year olds stand on a bucket as they learn to not be scared of catching the ball…great idea… none of this shit is for t-ball. This is maybe the next level or two up.
This was amazing!! I’m about to coach Tee ball for the first time and this is very useful information!!! Please keep it coming!!
I just became head coach for my 6 and 5 year old and never played just basketball and football so watching every bit
Same!!! I’m about to coach tball for the first time ever. Gonna be interesting. Thanks for this video.
Trust me I tried it with 4/5 year olds and this works specially defending the castle

It works. I used it

This is exactly my situation. I wonder how many t-ball coaches start this way lol
Great advice! Will be trying all 3 if possible as 1st time tball coach.
Amazing stuff guys!!!
Ran the first 2 drills at my last practice and it was received well by the kids.
You guys are savin my bacon. First time coaching, pray for me and my girls lol
My son just started Tball i need help!!! 😅 Its been years since ive done softball and my daughter is competition cheer never touched a ball !!! 😅 Hope this can help my kiddo thank you
Warlord is a great station drill even for older kids in the 8-12 age range. I'll be trying that at our practice.
This is a great video with useful tips. These kids have lucky coaches
thats magic!!!!!!
Love these. I'm definitely using them
Great video! Awesome stuff for tee ball.
Great drills guys

Id say they see somethin! ask the coach what areas they need work in!

Those are great if you're one-on-one but with a team with eight kids and two coaches it's not going to be that easy
I would never put 4 to 6 year olds standing on a bucket
You’re not a fun parent

Darker….shorts….! Lol. T-ball practice is about to get awkward!
Like the idea, but I don’t see a four-year-old standing on a bucket catching a ball with one hand. Not my four-year-old anyway.
4yr old standing on a 5gL bucket = disaster
My kids are just looking at the sky. Attention span is not there anymore
Is this guy used to coaching deaf kids, if not why the screaming?
lol these drills are for 4 year olds
