Baseball Catching Drills – Ground Ball Drills

Coming up with new ideas for [tag]baseball catching drills[/tag] can sometimes be a challenge.   Here are a couple of [tag]baseball drills[/tag] that Phil sent in.   Give them a try.

From Phil”¦
We use a[tag]baseball ground ball drill[/tag] that has two [tag]baseball[/tag] coaches at home plate with a bucket of balls each.

One [tag]baseball coach[/tag] will hit to short stop and they will throw to 1st. The ball is put into a bucket there.
The other coach will hit to 2nd and they will throw to 3rd and the ball placed into a bucket there.

Once the buckets are empty the player exchanges them and the coaches then hit to different positions.

This [tag]baseball drill[/tag] allows for a lot of ground ball work in a short time. It also keeps the players active fielding grounders and receiving throws. It helps with tag plays and double play work.
