Young Girls Softball Drills – Bingo

Purpose: To develop a level swing and proper mechanics by offering instant feedback. This drill is meant to work on softball hitting techniques.

Procedure: Position two Ts at the same height with one directly behind the other. The batter drives the back ball into the front ball. The farther apart the Ts, the more difficult it is to hit the front ball because errors are magnified. The path of the hit provides instant feedback on the mechanics of the swing. If the hitter misses to the left, she has an outside-inside swing. If the hitter misses by going above, she is dropping her back shoulder. When successful the hitter should yell "Bingo."
