• Coaches fungos with emphasis on fast and slow runners
• Hack attack ground balls with emphasis on hard 1 hopers
• Cuts and relays
• Throwing progression to help build arm strength and accuracy
• Proper fielding mechanics and throws on infield in
• Footwork around the bag on throw downs and back-picks
• Fly ball communication and repetitions
• Double play repetitions
• Review of all small drill progressions learned during winter training
