Take a look at this submission from Lynn. A great example of a baseball hitting drill that can work with all age groups.
From Lynn…
A baseball drill I came up with is a bat control drill used on the field.
The 20 Point Hitting Drill
The first part of the drill has 3 bunting zones, 3B, Middle, and 1B. I use tees to divide the area on the field. Each batter gets 3 pitches to get 3 bunts down in each zone (possible 9 points).
Then we move the tees back to the start of the outfield grass. They each get three pitches to hit to the correct zone (stated ahead of the pitch by the coach). This is another 9 points if successful.
Then they get 2 hit and run swings to finish for a possible 20 points. I set a goal for the day like 12 points. If they get it, they get out of some part of conditioning or 5 extra BP cuts, etc.
If helps the coach and the players know who can control their bat in game situations.
