What is a good baseball drill to do at my age?

Question

i am 13 ,about to be 14 in less than 3 months

something to help me improve my catching and to bat further

Answer 1

find a swing that is right for you. do lots of work on tees and soft toss to develop a steady swing. then swing weighted bats to build up the muscles you use when hitting a ball. catching just takes practice. all you can really do is build up your arm with lots of long toss and practice getting out of the crouch quickly

Answer 2

mike - You are COMPLETELY WRONG.  Getting a bigger bat does not help you hit farther. Get a lighter bat so you can swing faster.

A kid on my team has a really heavy bat and he struck out 9 times in 3 games.

Answer 3

try beabetterhitter.com  it has alot of drills for hitting.

Answer 4

use a heavier bat too hit further and what catching like cather or infield or outfield?

Answer 5

Take grounders

Practice "sqishing the bug" (look it up)

Answer 6

practice with a heavier bat, then when u go up to the batters box, u will swing faster and stronger!

also, practice with a wood bat, the sweet spot is smaller so u will know when u really hit it right..
