How To Coach At Gameday During Kids Baseball Leagues

By Cara Torres


It is actually a given for a coach to think of the best ways to win the kids baseball leagues. This is the job of the head coach. Whether the head coach is a professional in this job or someone who has volunteered from the parents of the children in the team, they should do their best to give the best game possible to the little ones.

When it comes to taking care of the game plans for the league games, there are lots of things that one has to take into consideration. For those who are actually volunteering or were nominated to become head coach, there are several tips that they have to bear in mind. Here are those things that they have to pay attention to.

First off, it is necessary for the person to think about a suitable playing time for the little ones. It is necessary to split the playing time properly so that each and every child is given a fair chance to play. This is also a similar principle that one has to follow when it comes to the number of innings the child gets to play.

It is also a given for the said coach to think about the positions for the game properly. For coaches, deciding on the positions might be a difficult puzzle especially when there are multiple children who suit that position. The coach should be prepared for such difficulties. Consider all available factors when deciding on the positions.

Remember that the parents should be the ones who know the most about the policies regarding the said issues. This means that the parents should express their affirmation to the policies one has set up for the play time and position during the game. If they know this, they do not have anything to hold against the coach when things go wrong.

There may be times when it is necessary to decide on an arsenal of signs to play with. Signs are not really important for tee ball games but it will be different for league games. There should be a sign decided beforehand when the child has to bunt, steal a base, or hit-and run.

The umpires are the ones who facilitate the game. They are also similar to the head coach in a way that they are also volunteers from the parents. Since this is the case, the head coach should treat the umpires with respect. The coach should treat them with respect in the same way that one wants to be treated.

It is also a must that the head coach is clear with the parents. The parent's support are necessary but they should not overdo things. The parents should not make any nasty comments to the umpire. In addition to that, it is important that they do not make any signs or coach the child from the stands.

The coach should be the one who is the most calm in every game. Maintaining a level head is one of the jobs of a coach, after all. They need to keep calm, especially during kids baseball leagues, since this will allow them to keep the big picture in mind. They can make good decisions when their head is clear.
