Running out of gas or running out of focus?

For practice do a warm up & stretching then conditioning drills, get them good and tired, then practice fielding, hitting and throwing. It teaches them to play when tired and not to loose focus when tired. Some advised of good examples of what to do between games.

We do work them hard in warm ups at practice to get them on the edge to fight through the tired. Def seems to help but I don't know if that's good for before games. Especially like this weekend when it was 90 and 90% humidity.

Thanks again for the discussion.

I was not referring to before game warm up, but during practice to expose them to game like conditions when they seem to loose focus.

We really don't have a lot of options. We were in the winners bracket all day Saturday until we lost the last game. But it was the last game of the day anyway. I thought it was odd to run the schedule that way but that's how it goes when you're battling the weather. We've done it in 8u as well. Not the ideal set up.

Yeah, I hear you. But who organizes these things? Play a doubleheader once a week and call it good.
