01 / KNOW IT
Today’s lesson.
Create a visible, steady glove target.
Why it matters
Pitchers need a target they can find.
02 / SET UP
What you need
With a soft ball and adult tossing from nearby, wear appropriate equipment when receiving pitches.
03 / PRACTICE IT
How to do the drill
Set glove visible, eyes track the ball, receive comfortable underhand soft tosses without stabbing.
ONE CUE TO REMEMBER“See it in.”
04 / PLAY IT
Today's skill-game challenge
Receive 5 of 8 easy tosses cleanly.
05 / WATCH FOR IT
One common mistake
Reaching out too early and losing the ball.
Coach it positively: notice effort, a good decision and controlled movement—not just the final result.
