3 Fun Baseball Drills For Kids

Practice makes perfect, and the saying holds true when it comes to improving as a baseball player. These drills are favorites amongst young players because they teach essential skills in a fun, fresh way.

For this drill, coaches will need three hula hoops (preferably in different colors), a few bats and several baseballs. Position the hula hoops in front of home plate in different bunting zones: In the first-base line, directly in front of the plate, and in the third-base line.

Coaches will pitch to players at home plate and call out a color, and the players will attempt to bunt the ball into the designated hoop. This is a great way for players to develop control in their bunting. To create an element of competition, coaches can award points for each target made.
