Watch as Coach Larry Wooten discusses how to help athletes to prepare mentally for an At-Bat. He explains in detail his checklist that prepares his players to hit.
- Be prepared for the on-deck circle
- Take 2 or 3 cuts to get loose and ready to bat. Focus on the game and pay attention to the 3rd base coach
- Look at the pitcher and try to figure out how she likes to pitch
- When the pitcher has her hands together, the batter calls time then steps into the batter’s box. You are taking control, and the player who thinks they are in charge will be more successful than the player who thinks they are not in charge
