You don't become a .300 hitter without good fundamentals, correct mechanics, strike-zone discipline, and a lot of repetition.

By following the step-by-step approach laid out in this book, your players will learn the proper techniques of hitting.

Featuring advice and insight in every chapter from minor league batting instructor Steve Braun, Coaching the Little League® Hitter presents the ten most important and fundamental concepts that hitters should master, including:

Ways to incorporate the proper hitting fundamentals with your players' own distinct batting styles Ways to eliminate "happy feet" inside the box Tips for loading up and increasing bat-head speed How to make the stealth stride and stay under control How to maintain balance while generating power Tips for taking a positive mental approach
