Hey everyone-back with a new question. Thanks for all the cut-off advice on the last one!
I am looking for more competition-like drills or fake-game scenarios where you can divide the girls up into teams to compete against eachother. I have 13 high-school girls on our team and we have found that doing competitions really increases the hussle and effort in our practice.
For example..yesterday at practice we did batting stations in the gym, and each girl got 10 balls in the cage of the machine. Each person had to make contact with 6/10 balls, or their team had to run a line drill. If all the team members got contact, then the coaches would run one. We then did another round where they had to get 2 fair bunts down & 2 hits out of 6 balls, which also worked great. The girls loved this.
Especially interested in any you might have with defense/live pitching. We are going to try a version of 21 outs today with our girls but i really don't have enough squad to divide up into 2 even teams to compete against eachother. Open to suggestions?
