Youth Softball Batting Tips

One of the toughest athletic feats is to hit a round ball with a round bat squarely. Hitting a softball requires exquisite eye/hand coordination and trained muscle memory. You need both of these factors working for you if you are to improve your ability to hit a softball. Don’t forget, the pitcher doesn’t throw the ball with the intention of letting the batter tee off on the pitch. The pitcher adds to the degree of difficulty by using skills to make the ball move, and to throw to spots where the hitter has the least chance of hitting it well. 

With proper instruction and youth softball batting tips and drills, players can develop the skills to become adept batters. There are three key elements to softball batting: stance, stride and bat selection. 

• Stance and Stride – Youngsters will naturally pick up a bat in the way that feels most comfortable to them. They will put left hand over right hand on the bat to swing as a left-handed batter, and with right hand over left to be a right-handed batter. From both sides of the plate, one of the key youth softball batting tips is to be comfortable at the plate. Since home plate is 17 inches in diameter, softball hitters need to stand close enough to the plate to cover the outside corner of the plate. Upon the release of the pitch, softball hitters need to move their front foot forward in the direction of the pitcher while simultaneously keeping their weight on the back foot. Batters then swing the bat forward with their hands and attempt to make square contact with the softball on the sweet part of the bat about three inches from the top end. Batting tips can be reinforced through batting drills either with a batting machine or with live pitching. 

• Bat Selection – Youth softball instruction does not emphasize enough the importance of bat selection. One of the most important youth softball batting tips one can offer is for coaches and parents to allow their players, sons or daughters, to select a bat for themselves. They are the ones that must swing the bat at a ball propelled to home plate in an attempt to make them miss. The bat must be long enough to cover the outside corner of the plate, and light enough for the batter to handle the speed of the pitch. It is no surprise the youth softball hitters will sometimes switch bats in order to adjust to the different pitchers and their velocity. 

Here are other key youth softball batting tips: 

• Don’t Squeeze the Bat too hard – This will only slow down your bat speed.

 • Keep your Eyes on the Ball – When the pitcher winds up, watch the ball at all times, and don’t be distracted by the pitcher’s wind-up. 

• React, Don’t Think - When you are in the batter’s box, react to the pitch. Think about your mechanics when you are on the on deck circle waiting to hit, not when you are in the batter’s box. 

If you follow these youth softball batting tips and practice hard, you will become the best softball hitter that you can be! 

Finding the right softball drills for you: 

Not all drills are appropriate for a 10 year old, and those that are may be too basic for a 16 year old. While you can find a wealth of softball drills scattered throughout the Internet, the key is to find a large library that lets you focus on your key skill (pitching drills, batting drills, hitting drills, fielding drills, etc.) and find the ones that are appropriate for your age group. If you spend some time looking for them, you can find videos, written instructions and even 3D animations that can be helpful.

At Weplay, we have collected and categorized such a library and have also highlighted several partners that similarly do a good job of teaching softball drills. Find the ones that are best for you and your team whether on Weplay or throughout the Internet and your practices will be much more productive.

The Persistence of Youth $112.95 This volume is a collection of fifteen first-person accounts of growing up during the Nazi era. The selections cover a broad range of personalities and circumstances. Included are testimonies from the daughter of an anti-Nazi German family, the son of a mixed marriage in Germany threatened with deportation, a German Gypsy who witnessed Mengele's experiments, a Polish Jewish girl saved by her teacher, a Prague teenager escaping to Denmark and Sweden, a Polish Jewish youth in communist Siberia, a partisan, an eleven-year-old in Auschwitz, a young Yiddish actress exiled to Tashkent, and a Polish Catholic child deported to work camps. Drawn from the Holocaust Oral History Archive of Gratz College, each testimony is a unique story of survival through defense, adaptation, and resilience. The introduction to the book, written by Professor Nora Levin, provides the historical background of the rise of fascism and Nazism in Germany and the social and political dislocations that ensued. Editor Josey Fisher integrates the testimonies into the framework of adolescent development in the preface. Brief introductions to each chapter set the historical framework and describe the unique set of obstacles challenging each child. The youth of the Holocaust were caught in the time of their growing. Their external world had real enemies and unspeakable danger at the same time that their physical, psychological, and social development were propelling them toward adulthood. Internal intensity was intertwined with external threat. . . . (from the preface). Persistence of Youth provides a unique perspective on child development and psychological issues and will be of value to researchers in these fields as well as historians and others concerned with the Holocaust.

The Flower of Youth $12.95 Written as a kind of historical narrative in verse, the poems in this collection depict the coming of age and sexual awareness of the great Italian writer and film director, Pier Paolo Pasolini. The time of this story is World War II; the place is German-occupied northern Italy. Unlike his younger brother, Guido, who took up arms to fight in the resistance, Pasolini chose to help his mother set up a school for the boys too young to fight or be conscripted. The situation ignited an internal war for the young Pasolini that nearly eclipsed the historical moment: a battle within between his desire for boys and his Catholic faith and culture. In addition to the poems that juxtapose Pasolini’s struggle against the backdrop of political and cultural fascism, the book also includes a prologue and an epilogue that details the author’s pilgrimage to the site and her research into the time that shaped Pasolini as a man and as an artist.

Bilingual Youth $143 The present volume represents a variety of portraits of what happens when families attempt to raise children in Spanish while living in English-speaking societies. Aided by the foregrounding chapter by Suzanne Romaine about language and identity and the afterword by Carol Klee that ties together many issues brought up throughout the collection, the reader gains a more complete understanding of the variables that contribute to Spanish bilingualism in English-speaking societies, and by extension a more complete understanding of the dynamic nature of bilingualism in general. This volume, the first of its kind, brings together an impressive array of sociolinguistic environments while keeping the two languages constant. We hope that it marks the beginning of comparative analyses of bilingualism, acquisition outcomes, and identity construction across environments that share the same languages, but where important disparities exist in the sociolinguistic landscapes.
