Parents who report anything negative about this product (no offense) may have children not interested in sports... because my son and every one of his cousins and friends that come over sit and watch these DVDs from start to finish. He is 2 now and asks to watch Tiny Tots specifically. We are amazed to see how much he has picked up about the basics of sports just from watching. At 18 months our son can hit from a T with great accuracy, drops his bat and runs to the bases. All learned by watching this DVD. It is amazing. The perfect gift for your child and any little boy or girl you now. We started at 18 months introducing these DVDs and his 5 year old cousins still watch the ones we bought for them.
Customer Review: Fantastic video
My son is two and absolutely loves this video! He asks for it all the time and it has saved us on a few long trips in the car. We plan on getting some of the others in the series as well. Highly recommended!
Mental preparedness at middle infield positions will reduce physical errors by helping you may sound decisions with the ball. Your players must make sure of the first at second. This is nothing new, but it is true today. Your pitchers must also be included in practicing the twin killing. There will be just as many chances for the double play from the mound as anywhere else. The pitcher must be taught to take their time and lead the shortstop with the throw.
Begin the double play with a throw that is near the player's hands so the transfer is quick and flawless. If the player is late is late getting to the bag, they may have to lead the shortstop with your throw, which means the player may have to take something off of the velocity of the throw.
When a ball is hit to your right, an underhand toss may work since you are usually close enough to the shortstop. Footwork again is key, after fielding the ball, pivot on your right foot, present a clear look of the ball by moving your glove away, and deliver the ball. When you use an underhand toss, be sure to follow through on your pitch, which means let your momentum to carry you towards your target after you you release the ball. This ensures a smooth delivery of the ball by staying balanced.
Want More Twin Killings This Year? Here's How!
Double plays are one of the sweetest things to witness on the diamond in my opinion. They also do not happen by accident,unless it is the line drive double play,which hardly counts as a real Twin Killing. The positioning of your middle infielders is very important in being ready for a double play.Foot work is overlooked by many new coaches. Your players must stay low when delivering the ball to the turn man. These are a few of the things that need to be taught to your players and then practiced over and over. Don't hesitate to have them walk through the play several times before going full speed.
We have a ball hit to your left, taking you away from second base, field the ball and plant your left foot. Then pivot to the right, keeping your right foot slightly behind your left foot, and without taking any steps, quickly pull ball all to your ear, and make an accurate throw to the shortstop.
Thanks Coach Chip
This ball is also delivered out of a crouching position, without a big wind up. To complete double plays there is not time for the necessary movements, such as extra steps, and long arm movements. The actions must appear seamless and fluid. This is accomplished by a lot of practice to achieve timing between infielders.
Turning a double play the standard way is a thing of beauty. There is much more to discuss about technique.We will cover more on this subject coming up soon. Footwork and proper catching throwing technique are just as important as a strong arm. If you want more Twin Killings this year, plan on practicing them the right way,and do it often. Perfect practice makes perfect plays.
