Type: Drill

ONE KNEE




Purpose: To develop the player's arm and shoulder strength for throwing.

Procedure: Each players kneels on the ground 10 yards apart facing eachother. (Right handed players kneel on right knee with the left leg out in front, while left handed players kneel on left knee with the right leg out in front.) Each pair has one baseball.

The players throw the ball back and forth to each other for a desire time period. Then the players are moved apart another 5 yards, and they continue to throw back and forth to each other for an additional time period. The drill continues to proceed in this manner for as long as desired. The distance the players are moved apart depends on their arm and shoulder strength.
