BVSA Teaches: Foot Print Drill

BVSA Teaches: Foot Print Drill

For this episode of BVSA Teaches, Frank Ramppen talks about the foot print drill.  A really simple drill or practice for a young kid and his balance is the rubber foot print we have here. We have them downstairs and upstairs in the facility. These you can just put down at the proper distance based on the height of the kid. This will be a little bit wider than shoulder length. Have them stand on there and hold the bat and get an understanding of where their feet should be.

Next you can talk about the pyramid there and getting their weight in to the inner part of their leg. Keep it really simple so that they have an understanding. Sometimes kids have to see it over and over again, so for the BAP’s maybe this is a station. For a private lesson, you start with this every lesson just to get your client to understand that’s where they need to be each time they step into the batter’s box.
