There are a lot of softball coaching tips. Here are a few: - Keep things simple when teaching skills. Too often, coaches make things complicated. - Stay positive with your athletes - this will help build confidence. - Challenge your players with good drills and competitions. Athletes love to be challenge. - Spend a lot of time on hitting, pitching, fielding, and throwing. These are the core skills of the game. - Spend some time teaching baserunning too. So many players don't know how to run bases properly. For additional tips, check the link below.
keep a high profile. and make sure the girls just dont play it to impress boys as they should be commited to it.
Base running is an essential part in softball. It can be an easy advance in base for teams with fast baserunners which can eventually be a run converted. Before drills can be done make sure your running mechanics are correct. Simple change in mechanics can increase your running speed. Proper arm swing, surface contact and stride length adjustment may help. Make sure also that you are taught the proper way to run around the bases and know the ready position on base prior to the pitch. Rounding the bases of having to increase the running curve before the base will help the runners not to decelerate when running. Check out the link for more tips
that would be the blood rushing through those areas
Practice the fore-hand, back-hand, and front short hops. Give your girls all kinds of hits, make them play out every single hit, even if it is a mess-up, because every kind of hit will happen in a game, and they all need to be played out. Run a drill where it is game situation so that your players can get used to this.
I think about the most you can hope for is two seams, just because the ball is big and womens hands are small. In general, emphasis is placed on one seam on the softball, the one that coincides with the action wanted on the ball. The seams are used a bit differently than in baseball, here they are used to add spin and direction since they are raised and offer grip by the finger tips.
well..i am 13 now but i have been playing softball for a while..you HAVE to practice. throw with a partner and make sure you aim at their chest (for tips/steps, just ask).and if you need to get better at feilding, make sure you have your body in front of the ball.have the glove on the ground and your hand right above your wrist so you can stop it on a ground ball. For batting,it takes time.just step toward the ball and keep your eye on the ball! any questions?Find a league to play in that focuses on instruction so that you are matched with other players that are learning how to play. Also, if you can attend, there are camps that focus on improving your softball skills and they are aimed at players at all skill levels. Seek out people you know that play and are good at softball and ask them for advise, tips and see if they can help your practice. Batting cages also are a good way to get practice at watching and hitting the ball. Once you get the fundamentals down, then you can try more advance techniques. And most of all, have fun!

Teach the proper basics of all softball skills and make sure they establish the correct foundation or form 1. Catch and throw - catch with both hands 2. Base running - run all the way and fast to first base 3. Hitting - Use all the muscles of the body all the way down to the legs Make sure that the attitude of being a good player is established.
