Good softball pitchers aren’t born, they are developed. A young player can become a good pitcher, and have a lot of fun along the way. Good pitchers have a couple of things in common. First, they really want to pitch. Second, they are willing to spend the considerable time and effort tocondition, train, and develop their skills. There are several attributes that most really good pitchers possess. They can control their pitches, throw strikes, and throw them with speed. They also have good self-control. The best pitchers know how to win; they have their head in the game and use their abilities to contribute to a successful team effort. This book will get young pitchers started on the right track to success. With chapters on conditioning, pitching mechanics, the variety of pitches, proper practice, control, game preparation, dealing with batters, fielding, and more, A Guide For Young Softball Pitchers is a complete source for the young pitcher and for all those who coach youth softball, as well as for the parents of young pitchers.

A great reference for players, coaches, and parents, A Young Softball Player's Guide to Hitting, Bunting, and Baserunning sets out everything the young player needs to develop the skills, physical conditioning, and training regimen required for success and satisfaction in the game of softball. In this indispensable volume, veteran youth coaches Don Oster and Bill McMillan impart decades of knowledge on forming young players and helping them to attain their full capacity. With a clear, readily understandable tone, A Young Softball Player's Guide to Hitting, Bunting, and Baserunning dissects the mechanics of the swing and the art of running, while also stressing the foundations of form. The authors also emphasize the value of flexibility, balance, and cross-training in other sports that condition the whole body--sports such as hockey, skiing, basketball, karate, soccer, track, and even ballet--to help get the body into shape. Last, but certainly not least, this volume highlights the importance of a good attitude and the value of having fun while working efficiently toward improvement.
