5-Part Series: The Most Common Mistakes Youth Coaches Make & How To Avoid Making Them.

PART 2: PRACTICE MANAGEMENT AND PLAYER DEVELOPMENT

  1. Not getting players enough repetitions - Repetition is key for skills development. Coaches need to structure practices so players get the maximum amount of quality reps, especially with the key skills, while avoiding any unnecessary safety risks.

  2. No plan for practices - Practices need structure with a plan to maximize time on skill-building. Unplanned practices waste time and will likely miss opportunities in important areas.

  3. Not adapting to attention spans - Younger players have short attention spans. We must avoid excessively long and stale activities, drills, and speeches.

  4. Ignoring struggling players - Take time to give extra instruction to players who are struggling with a skill. Don't just focus on the best kids. Keep a simple roster checklist to track your allocation of coaching pointers.

  5. Not having a backup plan - Coaches should always have a backup plan for drills/activities/practices in case something is not working well or there are issues with equipment, weather, the field, etc.

EPISODE #23     Part 1:  We’ll discuss the one thing to watch out for when copying successful players or successful coaches, and how not knowing this can often lead down the wrong path.     Part 2:  We’ll discuss why coaches must build a connection and trust with players before players will buy into what the coach has to teach.  We will talk about how to do this, and I’ll share an example of a well-known non-baseball coach that does this very well.   Part 3:  We’ll discuss the first step in developing a great pitching delivery.  Hint… it doesn’t take place on a mound.    If you enjoy the show it would be really great if you could leave a solid review.

EPISODE #22   PART 1:  A ‘Top 3’ all-time coaching book that was recently published. I’ll give you a concise take on the book and the author, who by the way, is an absolute stud leader.   PART 2:  I’ll share with you what I believe to be the single best physical consequence for those times you need to extrinsically motivate your players on those lethargic and unfocused days.   PART 3:  A simple positioning adjustment for hitters that’s under-used the vast majority of the time in youth and HS baseball. This adjustment immediately gives hitters more of one thing that they can use in the majority at-bats to improve their success rate.   Lastly, a word of praise for a top-notch teammate and person, Tim, that passed away way too young, and how we can learn from Tim’s exemplary approach to the game of baseball.

EPISDODE #5   This is the audio version of the ‘The 3 Hitting Plans’ article in which we optimize the hitting approach/plan down to the only 3 hitting plans/approaches a hitter needs, and why discuss why choosing the correct one is actually very straightforward. This is a big game-changer within the baseball community, as the Hitting Approach (or as I prefer to call it the Hitting Plan) is very commonly discussed, but rarely in terms of optimization. It’s something that has been passed down over the years yet never fully simplified. Essentially, these 3 plans derive straight from old-school wisdom, but I’ve stripped away the excess to do what should have been done a long time ago and that is to maximize the simplification of the hitter’s PRE-PITCH PLAN.   Also, give a listen to EPISODE #17 ‘THE 3 HITTING PLANS: FIELD MANUAL’ for a more in-depth look.

EPISODE #4   In this episode, we’ll discuss why the pitcher’s foundation is directly responsible for the vast majority of a pitcher’s success. In a baseball world full of arm-care, and arm-strength talk, it’s the legs, hips, and even the torso that have the largest impact on a pitcher’s success and arm-health.  This is not to say that many of the arm-strengthening protocols such as Long Toss and Plyo Balls are not helpful, they are, it’s simply that the lower 2/3 of the pitcher’s body, is the dominant influencer when it comes to game-success and arm-health.   This episode keys in on the importance of building the pitcher’s delivery from the ground-up.
