Product Description:
Put the play back in 'Play ball!'
Face it: Your Little Leaguers didn't sign up for your team to work on their pitching, work on their batting, or work on their base-running. They joined the team to play and have fun with their friends. But finding ways to keep your team enthusiastic and motivated doesn't have to supersede crucial skill development. Making Little League‚ Baseball More Fun for Kids can help you overcome the greatest coaching obstacle of all: how to teach your kids the skills they need to win games while allowing them to have fun and appreciate the game of baseball.
Children prefer games, contests, and competitions. Since it's their practice time, not yours, why not create a practice schedule that excites them? Making Little League‚ Baseball More Fun for Kids gives both coaches and parents a way to provide skill work in the guise of games that will keep kids happy and attentive throughout their practice. Written by a longtime baseball enthusiast, player, and coach and backed by the prestigious Little League‚ brand, this collection of creative new drills introduces 30 'games within the game' to use during practice sessions. Many can be played at home, while others are designed to involve the entire team. Each game is fun and simple to coordinate, and all of them teach or refine essential baseball skills so kids will enjoy their practice time while improving their technique.
Each game features:
- A brief message or anecdote that relates to the skill being learned
- Information about the number of players required, necessary equipment, a detailed explanation of how to play the game, and more
- An explanation of the specific skills that will be improved
- Sidebars that enlighten and entertain
- Photos and captions to clarify accompanying text
Help your team rediscover the pleasure of playing America's favorite pastime with the help of Making Little League‚ Baseball More Fun for Kids.

My son is in tee ball so I purchased this book as well as its predecessor for tee ball. This book was very useful and had some interesting drills for young children. I recommend this book for anyone with a child who has an interest in baseball.
