Today’s lesson.

Train a swing/take decision.

Why it matters

Good hitters do not need to swing at everything.

What you need

Adult holds two colored soft balls or gives easy tosses by agreement.

How to do the drill

Identify “swing” color and “take” color before toss; choose early and reset calmly after misses.

ONE CUE TO REMEMBER“See, choose, attack.”

Today's skill-game challenge

Make 8 of 10 correct color decisions.

One common mistake

Starting the swing before recognizing cue.

Coach it positively: notice effort, a good decision and controlled movement—not just the final result.
