Softball Drills – Baserunning Conditioning Drill

Purpose: Drill for softball conditioning which has the players run the bases in game-like situations.

Procedure: Sprint from home through first base, as if you just hit a ground ball in the infield. Take a lead at first and execute a delay steal of second. Take a one-out lead from second and score on a base hit. From home plate, make a turn at first base, pretending you got a base hit to the outfield. Follow that by simulating a hit-and-run, taking your normal lead at first base and ending up at third. Tag up on a fly ball to the left field and sprint home. Execute back-to-back doubles and two scores from second base. Finally, end with an inside-the-park home run.
