Proper Softball Pitching Drill Bank

Welcome! Meet Coach Rachel, and learn a little about what you will gain with this pitching drill bank. 

Each month, you’ll gain access to:

• Grip & Snap
• Arm Circle & Whip 
• Lower Body & Timing
• Body Positioning
• Spin & Movement Pitches
• Accuracy & Command

This video shows a pitcher how to properly set up her bottom half in the most powerful position to create power. This position is used in most drill work and is an essential part of throwing a pitch well with force. 

Being "stacked" means that the knee, hip, and shoulder joints are stacked over one another. 

This video demonstrates the basic grips for a fastball: 4 seam and 2 seam. 

{03:15} 00:11 4 Seam position!

This video demonstrates a few different ways to work on isolating the arm and working on using the fingers and wrist to spin the ball. 

This video is the key to internal rotation and understanding how the arm moves around the hip to create a whip motion. 

This video demonstrates one of the main drills a pitcher should be doing to work on arm path and release point. 

This video breaks down internal rotation and isolates the upper arm against the side to feel how the forearm moves around the hip to create a whip motion. 

This video demonstrates how the arm moves around the back side of the arm circle, staying palm up and elbow down, and allowing the arm to unravel. This drill is great for those transitioning from "hello elbow" to "internal rotation."

This video demonstrates a pitcher's arm path, and ways to warm up the shoulder and arm, while also working on proper mechanics. 

This video demonstrates a drill to work on arm speed and timing. 

This video demonstrates an arm path drill to work on proper arm circle mechanics. 

This video demonstrates drills to work on proper arm path mechanics with a physical obstacle to help the pitcher with spacial awareness. 

This video demonstrates a drill to help the pitcher feel a more proper release of the ball with their leg as a physical barrier to promote body awareness. 

This video demonstrates a break down drill where the pitcher pauses in a specific position. This drill promotes body awareness. 

This video demonstrates a break down drill where the pitcher pauses in a specific position. This drill promotes body awareness. 

This video demonstrates a drill to work on timing of the arm circle with the legs, and works on front side resistance. 

This video demonstrates a drill that works on balance, and power through the explosion. 

This video demonstrates a drill that works on power through the legs, forcing the pitcher to start low to the ground. 

This video demonstrates a drill that works on power through the legs by starting on a bucket. 

This video demonstrates how the body moves through a proper sequence: 
Heel, Hip, Hand. Toe lands first, then the three H's. Hip drive MUST lead the arm.

This video demonstrates a variety of way to learn hip drive, timing, and how to deliver a more powerful and accurate pitch. 

This video demonstrates a drill that works on the timing of the upper and lower body. This is a key skill.

This video demonstrates a drill that works on feeling comfortable and fluid with the wind-up motion. 

This video demonstrates how the full pitch is broken down into 3 parts: Reach & Freeze, Open, Sequence. 

This video demonstrates how the full pitch is broken down into 2 parts: Reach & Open, and Sequence. 

This video demonstrates a break down drill where the pitcher pauses in a specific position. This drill promotes body awareness. 

This video demonstrates a simple drill of pitching without doing a wind-up, working on timing, and body positioning at a more relaxed speed. 

This video demonstrates a drill that starts mid-way through the pitch and works on having good form through the arm circle and weight shift.
