Fast Pitch Softball Hitting Drills – Hit 'Til You Drop

Purpose: This drill for softball hitting enables the batter to see many pitched balls in a short amount of time.

Procedure: The drill which is a challenge game sort of drill can be played with a live pitcher or a pitching machine. A full defense is in place and the players are partnered up according to their hitting ability (strong with strong and weak with weak). Base runners can also be used in this drill. The partners will get five minutes together and have a chance to bat one at a time. It stays the batter's turn until she hits a foul ball or swings and misses the pitch. The players continue to alternate just until there is no more time left and the score is kept by the number of balls hit into play.
