Grip & Stance

Before any swing, every kid needs a repeatable starting point.

GoalConsistent grip (knuckles aligned) and balanced stance on every approach to the plate.

Doorknob Grip

Demonstrate the grip, knocking knuckles aligned, not palm grip. Walk the circle. Correct every kid individually.

Say it
“Knock on a door with your knuckles, that's how the bat sits in your hands.”
Why it works
Visual + physical anchor. Kids forget grip the moment they see the ball. This cue brings them back.

Stance Check

Feet shoulder-width, slight bend in knees, weight centered. Partner checks while you demonstrate. Then swap.

Say it
“Pretend you're about to catch a ball someone's throwing, that's your stance.”
Why it works
The 'catching' cue activates the correct athletic position without over-coaching.
