in throwing, lots of long toss. in batting over 100 swings daily with bat weight
Also work on mechanics. Most little league pitchers dont make it to high school level without the proper mechanics because they cannot through accurately or fast enough. Work on the small things like coming over the top, dont through curveballs, and throw HARD
to make him a little better
yea they almost always make it to tthe little league world series
A runner is entitled to leave the base even if the pitcher is in the circle, if the pitcher is attempting to make a play on a runner, or faking one. That usually means more than just a look-back. A coach that seeks an out here will be risking his/her patience by a good umpire.

first you need to make your towns all-star team, then your team has to make it to the state tournament and if you win then you get to the little league world series

Jamie Moyer is famous for many things baseball related. He is a pitcher in the Major League Baseball league that is looking to make a comeback at the age of 50.
Homeplate DistanceI remember making the leap to the larger field and at first it feels pretty big, but basically at the age of 15 the kids generally do outgrow the Little League fields, catchers CAN make the throw to second and the shortstops and third basemen can make the throw to first. By this point, most of the kids who are still playing are interested baseball players so the pool of talent is much lower but the overall level of talent is much higher. Chances are a 15 year old kid playing on the larger field has played since he was six. Also 14 year old pitcher regularly throw over 55 mph which on a Little League Field is VERY fastHe is right. At age 14, from a little league distance it would be very dangerous. (They actually have two different distances, high school is the same distance but Seniors isn't.)The hitters are also better in the bigs.Like for me, at 13 years old I throw 72, from a little league distance that could injure a kid.At 13 I was 4-10 80lbs., but some friends were 6-4 255, poney league bases were 75' This was a lot of fun!
Little League? It should depend upon who's better honestly. If you have two good middle infielders, do it by who is up to a bat. Right handed hitter? 2nd base should cover. Left hander? SS should cover. But in little league, who ever is going to make the play!
Yes. As long as a mound doesn't bother the pitcher, it will add a little speed on the ball and make it go lower in the zone. It's generally and advanatage to the pitcher.
