The Baseball Ceiling Drill
Key Takeaways
-
Maintain a low stance while fielding the ball to stay under the “ceiling.”
-
Staying low promotes ground connection, which enhances balance and throwing accuracy.
-
Use an imaginary line or a PVC pipe to visualize the ceiling.
By keeping a low stance, you avoid standing up, which helps maintain ground connection. This connection is crucial for balance and power, leading to more accurate throws. Visualizing a ceiling, either with an imaginary line or a PVC pipe, reinforces the need to stay low throughout the fielding and throwing motion.
Practicing the ceiling drill consistently will ingrain the habit of staying grounded, resulting in more accurate and powerful throws.
