What this routine is

Five timed blocks, ten minutes total, built from the footwork sequence M4P teaches on the dirt: first-step readiness, approach angles, glove work and the funnel, the exchange, and throwing on the move. It runs anywhere a glove, a ball and a partner fit, and every block carries the one cue a parent can coach.

What's inside

  • Five timed blocks that add up to ten minutes
  • Reps for each block and one coaching cue per block
  • A timed exchange test with a number to beat tomorrow
  • Footwork that carries the throw

How to use it

  1. 1Print it and keep it in the bat bag.
  2. 2Run it before every practice and game, in order.
  3. 3Write down the exchange time; that is the number to beat.
  4. 4Want the feet coached live? Fielding lessons and the assessment are at /book.
