What to Look For When Evaluating and Correcting Fundamentals
First and foremost, coaches must have a working knowledge of what good fundamentals look like in their mind, whether it’s on the mound, in the field or up at the plate. Time and again when teaching, the same buzz words come up: balance and athletic position. If the player does not start in a balanced, athletic position, his/her chance for having success drops dramatically.
How to Create and Give Signs
Creating signs does not have to be complicated. Most coaches use an indicator
sign which alerts the player that a sign will be put on after that. For instance,
the indicator may be touching the bill of the cap or the left elbow. The sign that
comes directly after the indicator is touched is what the coach wants to put on.
