Coach defensive responsibilities...
I coach a team of 8 to 10 year old girls, some who have never played. I'm working on teaching them coverage and backing up. There's so many nuances to this as you all know. For those who have been coaching awhile, where would you start? How would you break it down so they can understand and not...- JaC

I was speaking to another coach and shared that I want to start from the basics and teach the girls how to hold the softball properly. The other coach think it's a waste of time, that they'll hold it like they hold it and we go...- JaC
