Infield Drill

New In-Motion animated QuickTime version now available for WebBall Team Players. Please sign in or join.

10 minutes of this creates more ball handling than a 30 minute regular infield!

RED lines are direction of ball throws or simulated hits.

BLUE and BLACK lines are direction of player movement.

Set-Up

Start with players (three or four) at second and short positions. Plus one or two first-basemen and one or two at third.

Now fold in the infield - moving third-basemen to infield grass between mound and first.

One of the First/Third players serves as a back-up on overthrows. And a coach on the mound can help supervise the play, monitor mechanics, and offer encouragement.

Run the Drill

Animated version, details, and illustrated variations available to Team Players and Team Managers. Please login or join now.
