Youth Baseball: A Coach`s and Parent`s Guide is designed to provide tips and information that will make the game of baseball more enjoyable for every boy or girl. Playing baseball well is a great feeling. Hitting a home run or making a diving catch gives youths as well as Major Leaguers a warm feeling of accomplishment. However, the game of baseball is built almost more on failure than on success. Even the best hitters in the game make seven outs in every ten at-bats. Learning how to deal with that disappointment, and not crushed by it, is one of the keys to success in baseball or in any sport. Using the drills and other ideas and suggestions in this book should help youths have a better understanding and appreciation of the game, and should make them understand even more why they got a hit or why they struck out. Players and coaches can both read this book, use the information provided and the tips and suggestions about how to make a batting tee or a batting net, then go out in the yard and practice, practice, practice.
