Any suggestions on how to teach these 8U girls how to use the mitt? They hold it straight out in front of themselves with their arm straight behind them like they are fencing not catching a ball... Most of these girls have never played and neither have I so simple terms would be great! I was told to start out not using a mitt at all which I've done and they catch it but when they put the mitt on they go back to fencing! it's hilarious but they are frustrated they aren't catching the ball.
Oh and our first game is Saturday! LOL
Any help is appreciated!
