Good afternoon the "ABC Rewind" highlight video for this week (Mon 5/16-Thurs 5/19) has been posted on the ABC .com website for your review. The weekly Rewind will serve several purposes:
- a sneak peek at what you might have missed
- a look-in for parents at what your ball players are up to
- accountability that the ABC program is delivering on our purpose
- an opportunity for others to witness for themselves, the ABC Difference
INVEST IN YOURSELF
raise your bar - raise your ceiling
Data points from the the weekly
"ABC Rewind" video from this week:
- Dynamic defense/SAQ program: agility drills emphasizing quick feet (using ladders and cones) while executing a baseball specific drill at the end (throwing to target), Arm Care & Thera bands
- Swingtherapy session: emphasizing power position (staying tall & firm on back side), drive back side thru ball with dynamic motion ("catch the ball"), live arm BP
- Field practice: active/dynamic warm up using change of direction sprints and agility drills, 10 min long toss/throwing dynamics, pop up drills, infield fundamentals, fungo in the outfield grass (dirt too wet)
- Team Building Fundamental: Whiffle ball! The twist was that batters had to bat from opposite side and defense had to play "real baseball" (not throwing whiffle ball at runners).
Have a great rest of the day.
Go Take on the Game,
Coach Prater
