The goal isn't to squeeze as many drills as possible into practice! It's to help kids leave practice a little more confident and capable than when they arrived.

Ask yourself three questions before your next practice:
- What skill are we improving?
- How many meaningful repetitions will each kid get?
- How will I know if they're getting better?
A little more purpose can change the whole practice.

And comment TEACH for the CB Skills Course

Pure bat path doesn’t come naturally. It’s gotta be learned, practiced, and practiced some more. Dont shy away from the TEE this off season guys. The pros hit endless amounts of balls off a batting tee.

I know this. One way to NOT get better, is to NOT practice a little bit every day. Go gettum. I’m rooting for ya.

I’ve been to almost 1,000 different towns on the National Sandlot Tour. This has turned into my favorite part. “The unpacking sesh” with the coaches after a 3 hour clinic. The majority of our talking points have zero to do with baseball and everything to do with CONNECTION. “No significant learning will happen without a significant relationship built first.”

Already booking brand new regions across the globe for 2027. I can’t wait to meet ya!

Not every behavior needs a bigger consequence. Kids don't always have the words to tell us what they're feeling, and behavior can be one of the few clues we have.

We can hold kids accountable while still trying to understand them.

The best coaches manage behavior by teaching kids how to handle what's underneath it.

Save this as a reminder for your next tough practice.

Our theme this November and December is “Advanced Skills.” Things I learned in college, to your child’s ears. SKILL heavy with the same old Ballgame FUN.

You’ll find all the links at my website. The National Tour and all the local Orange County jams!

“If you’re a League President or Board Member, there’s no greater education for your coaches than Coach Ballgame’s Sandlot. He provides a training video specifically for the coaches of your league. He does a walkthrough with all the coaches before the kids arrive. Then he unpacks his 23 years of experience after the Sandlot with a Q and A. It also happens to be the most fun night of the year for these kids. A full on community changer.”

Registration Links for each city at my website under the “National Sandlot Tour” tab.

If you are that League President, email our Queen of the Tour Schedule SHAINA at [email protected] as 2027 is already booking out.

How did the Milwaukee Brewers change baseball? These 3 things were the key!

They also had elite defense, athletes that ran fast, and a talented pitching staff that was HUNGRY.

Will other teams start shifting towards this old school type of baseball?
