Teaching young hitters to load.

Posted by: rocket () on Tue Dec 30 12:35:30 2003

I am currently coaching a 9 and 10 year old team. We have been working on preswing movements to get into a proper loaded position. My questions is, would you teach a young hitter to load the same as a college or professional hitter? Or should they use a simplified version?

If you were working with a 9 year old that had never received any instruction on the rotational swing, how would you describe the load to him?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Have a great day.
