We are in process of a ground up 16u team build. Seeing results on defense. Extensive investment in pitching instruction for pitchers and catchers. Kobata clinic, sound defensive drills that we are seeing executed in games.
BUT - failing on the hitting plan.
We hit once a week. SOlid practices. Good coaching...but just aren't seeing results.
We have an opportunity while school ball is in progress to really amp up the hitting. We only practice every other week due to kids already practicing/playing 6 days a week.
Coaches are ready to invest significant time between April to may to work with the girls.
What would you do to get solid improvement?
How many hitting sessions a week? Breakdown? Machine? Front toss/tee? small group instruction?
Thanks for any help/thoughts.
