10U hitting keys?
I'm looking for a simple memory aid that my 10U hitters can use when they are hitting. What are the keys they should remember?
For example, I have given my 10U team the following mnemonic reminder to say to themselves when they are on defense: "BOT" or, B – BASERUNNERS. Know where the baserunners are and how you could get them out…tag the runner or tag the base?
O – OUTS. How many outs are there? If we have two outs, how can I get the easy out? If we have zero or one out, what can I do to get a baserunner out?
T – THROW. Where am I going to throw the ball if it is hit to me? Where am I going to run to receive a throw from my teammate if it is not hit to me? Where am I going to run to back up a throw?
Oh, yes, I did have to look up mnemonic (memory aid) in the dictionary! LOL!
Thanks for your input!
