Baseball 101 coaching youth 202
Found this podcast 2 seasons ago and have forwarded so many episodes to my players parents and their coaches. So much here it’s hard to pick one favorite-but can say I have listened to many of them multiple times-it has helped me be a better rec league coach and travel ball parent. Personally-My son has evolved from a coach pitch lower level batter to hitting .700 in travel ball and a starting pitcher (not selected by his dad but by his travel ball coaches) Because of covid we found our fall Rec League in disarray-and they somehow placed a player with cognitive challenges on our team- he was a strikeout at every plate appearance and had to wear protective gear and have a player with him in the outfield just to stay safe. We also had a kid who had told by his past coach not to hit but only to bunt- Using development as our definition of success we were able to put a bright side on the situation for our challenged player and turned our professional banter in to a line drive hitter against teams who when they saw him in the line up positioned themselves for the bunt...we went on to win the majority of our games and make it to our recleague championship Thank you Rob for what you are doing for the sport and for kids who just want to be a valued part of the team - even if that means just one plate appearance or a big out in the field - where they shine, help the team and provide a much needed respite for their proud parents in the stands. Sincerely - Covid negative and positive coaching in the ATL
