Fastpitch Softball Grounder Drills – Soft Hands

Purpose: To develop soft hands. Great drill for improving the softball fielding element of the game.

Procedure: Partners stand six feet apart and rolls balls back and forth using an underhand toss. They field ground balls with their bare hands or by using flat gloves or wooden paddles. This forces players to give and gather the ball and use two hands. The hips are down, and the arms create a triangle.
