This is our first year in 14U. In the fall tournaments it became clear that the 14U pitchers throw more and much better curves, drops and screw balls than in 12U.
So how can we practice hitting these movement pitches?
We do a little live hitting off from our pitchers, but not a lot. Our coaches can't throw a curve, drop, or screw ball with a real softball underhand pitch.
I was thinking about trying out a wiffle ball to see if I can practice enough to make it curve and drop.
What do you do to practice hitting pitches that move? Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thank you.
