  1. Contact point tosses- toss a ball or sock in the middle of your body and catch with your back hand while in hitting position/motion

Think about: catching at different contact points. Keeping a consistent hand and body position no matter where you catch it

  1. Card catches: have a partner gently toss you playing cards and try to catch

Think about: hand eye connection, tracking the card all the way to your hands

  1. Split grip swings

Think about: Swinging through the ball vs cutting or chopping

  1. Rocker drill

Think about: Driving your back leg through the ball not squishing the bug!
