Beginner training plan
Your first lessonI’d like to start off by having an introduction between myself and the player (parents are always welcome). For beginners, the most important skills to learn are fundamentals. This is crucial for every successful player. For fielding, I like to introduce what I call “everydays”. This includes nothing more than a glove and a ball, as I get players comfortable with using their glove to all of the different movements and directions a ball comes from. This helps get players comfortable with their movement and muscle memory as well as hand-eye coordination skills. For throwing, I like to start with what I call “the routine”. This includes a routine that each player will follow any time they are warming up to throw. Not only can this teach players how to throw, it will also help build muscle memory and confidence in their throwing. For hitting, I like to start with an introduction to the bat and the different components on their piece of equipment. I believe a better understanding of their equipment allows a player to better know how to use it. Then, based on a players level of hitting, we will tailor lesson plans based on where they are at.
Lesson 11+As a student becomes confident in the basics, and is being challenged with faster paced workouts and lessons, we will begin to move forward to more intermediate skills. This will be tailored to each player individually.
Lesson 4-10As we progress, I would like to see the player being able to stick to their routines and fundamentals they have learned, being able to warm up and get loose while feeling comfortable to do so. As a player begins to feel more comfortable and confident, we will move on to faster paced workouts and lesson plans. Individual to each player, I will assess where they are at and tailor each lesson plan specific to skills we need to work on more or less.
Lesson 2-3I would like to continue on from lesson 1, and just continue working on the same skills and fundamentals until a player feels comfortable with the basics.
