First post here but I have been viewing for several years - Great site with so much useful and helpful information! Thanks to all of you in advance.
9th year coaching HS Fastpitch and this year I am really getting frustrated with several girls who are content to "put the ball in play" rather then to swing the bats with power and determination. I know much of this is mental and revolves around being aggressive, "want to" and the desire to do well.
Most of these same girls swing the bats well in the cage, but just can't get them to swing it in game situations.
I've been looking around but just not finding anything that seems to look like it will help with this.
Any thoughts, directions to threads that have already covered this scenario or ideas on drills would be greatly appreciated.
