Cupcakes!

First things first, Happy Valentine's Day to everybody. On our Tuesday practice indoors, we had a parent bring cupcakes for everybody. There were strawberry, vanilla, chocolate, and neapolitan cupcakes available to try. I had one of each... and enjoyed every last bite.

Now that the important stuff has been addressed, time for some baseball talk. I had the boys compete in quite a bit of accuracy games because their accuracy is still rather poor as a whole unit. We did some tee work with tennis balls but instead of hitting the balls in to a net, I let them hit the entire length of the gym so they could truly see where their balls were going. It was a fun drill for them and it also let me know where their tendencies lie. We did quite a bit of running and agility work because we didn't do much running at our outside practice on Saturday. We ended the practice with races and an ab competition of who can hold the plank the longest. 

All in all, the mix of long distance tee work, accuracy drills, races, ab competitions and cupcakes, this was my favorite practice to date.
