The Coach's Corner/Fall Ball

Summer baseball is almost over for the summer! Take a break. Encourage

your sons to go to the beach, golf or anything but baseball. Let them recharge.

But now is the time for you to plan for Fall Ball.

 
Fall ball is a wonderful season. Some refer to this season as a developmental season

but not for the right reasons. This is not a time to just goof off but a time to work on

specific things. If they will be moving up to a different age group with a larger field and

older players it is a great time to get acclimated. This is a great opportunity to play for

another admired coach or play a different position. If he’s considering trying to switch hit,

the fall is a great time to experiment. If he is a pitcher, the fall is a great time to work on a

new pitch like the splitter or circle change. He should not be particularly concerned with his

stats but focus on expanding his game. If his coach is consumed with winning the Fall League

to the exclusion of this kind of experimentation, you are on the wrong team.
