Hey Coach Hart! How could I tell my parents I need my players to attend all games and practices in a nice way not a bossy/rude way? Also I’m coaching an 8u team how many positions should each of my players have?

Thank you for your video, im trying to teach my 8yr old to pitch. I have never pitched, i was 2nd base but he really wants to try. Do you have any advice for teaching a young beginner?
@buildingbetterbaseball 15 күн бұрын
Honestly - I believe it’s all about repetitions. Do 50 - 100 dry mechanics every day. Make sure each one is correct. The most important thing is developing the muscle memory where your body just does the motion without you thinking about it. I like to tell my players “do you think about your motion when you brush your teeth? Or use a spoon to eat cereal? Probably not, because you’ve repeated the motion so many times. That’s what you want with your pitching mechanics. Remember, your mechanics throw accuracy. The key is developing repeatable mechanics. The more repeatable your mechanics are, the more consistent accuracy you’ll have. I’d be more than willing to jump on a quick 15 minute zoom call to chat if you’d like! Email me at [email protected]

How far from home plate is the fence ? For these age groups
@buildingbetterbaseball 22 күн бұрын
Hi there! This is really hard to say because all fields are so different. Some have a solidified fence and some don't even have an outfield fence. So it depends on what field you're playing on, you'll see all sorts of distances!

Hey coach, I have stepped up to coach my 10/yo rec league this year. It’s a hybrid kid and coach pitch. I could really use some advice. We have 1 practice a week for only 1 hr. Some kids have played for 3 years and some are just learning the fundamentals of throwing and catching. In that 1hr, what do you think is most important? We only have 3 practices before our first game.
@Dilley_G45 26 күн бұрын
I wonder if the rules are designed to keep scoring as low as possible.
@historyrepeated4239 29 күн бұрын
Great video. If the first pitch is a strike that you can hit well, why wait? Are we there to hit or walk? As you mentioned, you don’t want to have the mentality of swinging at everything early, but definitely should be prepared to jump on a good fastball in the zone. This advice is rarely given anymore. This is baseball and we want to but the barrel on the ball…it’s one of the best parts of the game!

You missed to explain what a Ball is in this video. A ball is a pitch that misses the strike zone and the batter doesn't swing at it.

YOU have the heart of a teacher and the brains of a coach. When doubles or triples happen, of course yoy get to see the replay immediately. (Maybe 3 times.) But if you're trying to understand what happened and aren't a baseball-centric person who already knows the rules, it's too quick and not a thorough enough explanation to understand it. Thank you.

@1701odin Ай бұрын
Not every player wants to learn or get better. There are some who are there because their parents have forced them to be and they may not even be interested in playing. This is fine for trying a new sport, but if it's clear the kid doesn't enjoy it and you still force them to be there, you're typically going to end up with an uncoachable kid. Because they don't care about the sport and don't really want to be there anyway. So no not every kid is coachable.

Great advice, and very helpful to keep in mind that as a coach you're not merely trying to get your team to win or even just produce better athletes, but acting as a mentor for the kids' overall development - and building a relationship with them through the intentional dialogue that you discussed can be the basis for overcoming obstacles that make it difficult to coach them. This can lead to more effective development of those kids as individuals/athletes and better cohesion as an overall team. Thanks Coach Hart!

Very helpful video. How many sets and reps of each of these 4 exercises should you do?
@buildingbetterbaseball Ай бұрын
I would say 3 sets of 10 to start, then build off of that to 4 sets of 12. Once they get accustomed to the exercises they can go at their own pace and find what works for them!

Yes I understand the pressure put on the game rules by the broadcasters, money! I do NOT like the new rule. If non pitchers are pitching the team at bat should be able to score. ron

My son wants to throw hard before getting more accurate
@buildingbetterbaseball Ай бұрын
😅 he’s not the only one! Many players have that aspiration - the only advice I can give is a friendly reminder that even if you throw 150mph with a crazy good off speed pitch - if you’re not accurate and unable to throw strikes, that means you’re walking everyone, which likely means the coach won’t have you pitching for too long. In my opinion, learn accuracy first - then spend the rest of your career growing stronger, bigger, and increasing velocity. The accuracy will always be there. The art of Pitching is so much more than velocity. Best of luck, I hope this helps!

Thank you for this video. You perfectly reinforced why I wanted to coach this year, having basically zero knowledge and never played as a kid. I only fell in love with this sport last year and a lot of the time, I am coaching kids who know more than me! Throughout the season, and with the help of channels like yours, we had a super successful run, and I gained enough confidence to want to come back next year. Thanks, coach!

This is amazing! It makes me so happy to hear stories like yours, thank you for sharing.

If the opposite team catch the ball, can the runner run to 2nd or 3rd base?
@buildingbetterbaseball Ай бұрын
Hi! If there’s a fly ball, the runner must stay at the base they’re at until the ball is caught (or dropped, but the defense has to touch the ball). Once ball is caught, the runner is allowed to advance to the next base if they choose. That’s called “tagging up”. All runners must tag up on every fly ball. Hope this helps!

I love your videos. I’m a little league head coach for a new association. I’ve created a private channel that’s only for our team families so the kids can still get some baseball time in at home. Simple back yard and basement drills. Sandlot with the buddies drills. Very basic fundamental stuff. There’s never enough time in practices to fit all the offensive and defensive situational awareness training in so videos at home are a great way to help them understand those things. Cutoff positions. Backing up throws etc. I only have three videos that are required viewing for all my kids and they’re the three baseball brain videos. I’m a huge positive thinking and visualization guy. It all starts in the head. Teaching them about the law of attraction is a bit much at their age but essentially it’s what I stress with them in ways they can comprehend. You do what you think and how you think is how you do it. Thanks for making great videos. I actually have quite a few of yours in the RAGING BULLS KNOWING BASEBALL channel.

If a Little League fielder chases a ground ball, and in doing so, crosses a baseline causing a runner to go outside the baseline to avoid a collision and possible injury, is the runner out?
@buildingbetterbaseball Ай бұрын
The runner would not be out - the fielder is entitled to pursue the ball to make a play regardless of where the runner is. I have a “baserunning rules” video that explains it in more detail. You can find it on my channel under “Popular Videos”. Hope this helps!
