Outfield: How should I catch the ball as a outfielder?
Teach your outfielders to be aggressive and to keep the baseball in front of them at all costs. It is important that your outfielders come through the baseball with good momentum whenever it is possible (this will aid with producing a more powerful throw into the infield).
When outfielders are going back on a flyball teach them to run to the spot where they think the ball will land and not to drift to the ball.
When chasing baseballs into the gap remind outfielders to take good angles to cut off balls. It's imperative to cut off balls before they reach the fence when at all possible. Practice excellent routes to the baseball at all times.
