Glove Basics: Two-Hand Catching & Ready Position for Young Players
A beginner catching drill for 10-12 year olds that builds a strong ready position and two-hand catching - glove up like a clown mouth, glove down like an alligator - so balls stop sticking and stop dropping.
⏱ ~12 min📋 4-5 rounds of 10-12 catches, alternating glove-up and glove-down tosses
What you'll need
- Glove
- Soft / tennis balls (recommended for beginners)
- Baseballs or softballs (as confidence grows)
- Wall (optional, for solo reps)
