What hitting drills can you do at home?

A tee, a net and a bucket of balls cover most hitting work at home. Soft toss, side toss and front toss add a moving ball once the tee work is steady. The videos show tee drills and how a parent should toss.

What it looks like: Your player wants more swings between practices, with a tee, a net and a parent to toss.
