DROP AND GO

Line your players up in foul territory by 1st base with the first in line in the 1st baseman’s playing position.

The coach stands at home plate with a bucket of balls and throws a hard line drive to the player at 1st.

The player catches the ball, immediately drops it and begins jogging toward 2nd.

The coach now throws a second hard line drive slightly leading the runner.

The runner catches the ball, immediately drops it and begins running all out past 2nd into left-center field.

The coach now throws a high pop fly leading the runner.

The runner catches the ball, turns and throws it back to home and returns to the end of the line.

Variation: Combine with the “Barney Game”.  Set Barney up on 3rd base. 

The players love it!
