I honestly love seeing a 5 year old swing hard & spin around. It's supposed to fun. It's a great lesson to see an MLB dad offer little to not coaching to a 5 year old. My son is 13 and I've learned there are many, MANY times when I just talk to dang much!

I agree 100%! What Matt is showing here is brilliant. Focus on fun with minimal guidance. He generally helps him set up, back foot and his plate alignment and focuses on contact and crushing it. Did you notice when they switched to the whiffle bat, Matty's swing and follow through were great! Matt said the over-bat was probably too heavy anyhow--which is fine. Matty's bat speed is so good for his age, the heavy bat probably makes him spin (and it cracks me up).

Got a 5 year old starting T ball.. had 3 practices. Doing well but sometimes he drops his shoulder so low trying to crush it that he cuts under the ball. So I’m trying to find new drills but your absolutely right. At 5 years old it’s all about having fun. Idk why but your comment snapped me back into reality. I’m trying to make a 5 year old into a pro lol, that’s not it’s all about. Thanks for the advice!

@@nicholasmouhot5407 I actually give lessons on the side and have this issue with a few kids (2 specifically ages 10 & 12). They just have a tough time taking their hands to the ball. Their dads might think I'm crazy but I'm working on having them "feel" on their own what their hands are doing. During tee work I ask them to try to hit the ball into the turf (aka A-Rod & Bonds drill), mainly to see if they can change. Surprisingly, they can! The issue though is getting them to make the change on a live pitch (or front toss).

@@theoneandonly24 Agreed. I have a little boy (turning 3 next month) who has been interested in baseball since we got him a toddler batting tee for his 2nd birthday. I tried showing him some stance mechanics and was met with confusion and frustration from my little guy. I immediately switched gears to simply setting him up in a general spot in relation to the tee and telling him to "hit the white and hit it hard!". Mostly worked beautifully. There were also times where he seemed like he was feeling some sort of pressure to be perfect. I assume it's self imposed because I try to be very hands off and encourage fun over anything else. He has also shown this trait in other things as well. Got to help him harness that trait as it could be both his best and worst quality depending on how it's handled and directed. Anyway, when I noticed this I would back off of the hitting for a week or so, sometimes longer, to kind of reset his feelings about it. About a year later he's still swinging hard and "hitting the white" harder than ever. Good stuff.

This got my 4-year-old girl so pumped to go and spend an hour just swinging hard for almost an hour (I left 15 minutes in and came back later). She had so much fun. I’ve offered baseball a few times and no interest. Seeing your kiddo just having fun raking and hearing that it’s just about having fun and going hard finally got her hooked. Literally watched this, she asked if we could do this now, left and got a bat, I pinned up a net, and then almost an hour of her swinging as hard she could. As a dad and a teacher I dig your perspective. Spot on man. As a teacher we often “over teach” and take out the thinking and figuring out. 5-year-old baseball basically should be grip it, rip it, high-5, repeat. Thanks for a small little video to motivate the kiddo to dig in.

Thanks for putting things like this up, going out of your way, to share and help others. There's so many good intentioned dads out there in all these volunteer leagues, like little league, who do the best they can and step forward to coach on their own time and dime, and sometimes folks/ parents are quick to judge them on what they do or don't do. Things like this are great for the youth volunteer coaches who are looking for a few tips and tricks on the fly and might not have the experience, training, or time to extend their knowledge and attend clinics due to work, volunteer, and familial obligations. Anyhow... thank you for the positive contributions!

It's my first yr with my own 5 yr old and I already can't believe how people are so quick to take the fun out of it and try an get their swing perfected immediately. The FUN is what makes kids want to keep going and get better. Please keep posting videos for the beginners.

Crushing the ball !! My boy is 4 and we just started getting him into baseball. He seams interested in it. I don’t get carried away with the over coaching either. I similar to you mark the ground by the tee for him to stand, give him a spot on the ball to focus on and hit it hard. Fielding is a challenge though. He throws ok but doesn’t really make an attempt to follow the ball with his glove on grounders or tosses. Cool vid, keep the toddler instruction videos coming. Thanks

During the lockdowns i took my boys (7,8) behind the supermarket and had them throw the ball against the wall. I found that when young kids throw a ball agains the wall, they are able to focus on the ball more. They pick up the speed and trajectory so much better than when Dad is throwing it to them. Many times, dad will throw the ball, they'll miss, because they don't judge it as well, and it gets past them, then they chase it, then throw it from far back and it goes past dad. The wall drill was instrumental in getting my boys to learn how to throw and catch, and lick up yhe ball. I carried that routine all the way up to 10u and when i had my team go to the wall (handball court at the park) they had a blast and learned to barehand the ball too. Highly recommend the wall for young kids.

Thank you for this!! I’m online trying to find ways to help my boys as well as the others on our 5U team. It’s our first year coach pitch and unfortunately some of these coaches are under the impression 4 and 5 yo kids should understand and play ball like a senior high baseball player! Not moving kids around and letting them try all positions, having something to say about how they bat every time they bat, etc .. just forgetting that at the end of the day they’re babies and at this stage it should be about fun, learning basics/fundamentals, and friendship, not so much about the more technical aspects at this point, penalizing them because they aren’t “great” or “getting it” And it’s bothersome to me because I’ve been telling my husband it will and does break their spirit, that these boys will end up hating the sport and not want to play it in the future when they could actually be great at it because some tball coaches took themselves a bit too seriously!! But over and over again from guys like you who really know what you’re doing, you’ve either played the game professionally, or have worked with professionals, hearing you all say what I’ve felt in my gut, what I’ve been saying but feels like it’s fallen on deaf ears, it’s nice to feel that validation!! So again, thank you for this!

@@GoldHatt That's very encouraging, thank you! And team mom is an amazing mom in my eyes! I'd love to get my son in basketball, still contemplating football as I'm pretty sure I suffered multiple brain impacts, kinda hard not to 😬

Basketball was my fave sport growing up so I loved having my oldest in it! He picked it up so fast and even made it on All Stars and it was his first year. We did a lot of practicing. :) But all 3 of my boys will be playing football this fall also. We actually have evaluations this Saturday. I’m nervous about the concussion part… ❤️‍🩹 But they’re very excited and we know a lot of the coaches around here who will be guiding the kids. So I think it helps knowing that. Trying to keep them athletic all year round.

I love your drills!! I have a question for you. I have a son that turns 6 next month and finished his 2nd year of t-ball. When do you start teaching mechanics? I've been watching your youth hitting drills and just want to know when I should start helping him with mechanics. For reference he'll be playing another season in t-ball next year before moving up. Thank you so much for all you provide to us parents out there.

So I started teaching more and more after these videos, but still don’t go crazy. Just subtle things. Basically whatever they can understand and every kid is different

I was pretty relieved but I heard you say you pretty much just told him to hit it hard and I'm glad I figured that out as a dad has two boys when I did my son was 6 years old when I figured out finally that he was just getting mad at me when I would try to explain stuff and it was boring and pretty much I dove in to some psychology to be honest and figured out that if I just tell them to hit or swing the bat hard as they can and don't focus on results but cheer more for them and encourage them more when they don't hit the ball so they don't get let down when they don't hit the ball if that makes sense it might seem simple to some but as a young father I didn't quite understand at first but the deep thinker that I am I wanted to be the best person that I could be to help them and that's pretty much what I was going to say but it's just a relief to see you not focused on drilling stuff into his head because he would hate it the first 3 days LOL Keep On Keepin On and he will be hammering balls in his teenage years I guarantee it my five year old is a brute as well and I've been pitching to him for a while even though his hand eye coordination is probably a year or so behind your boy in the video but he's starting to really keep his eye on the ball and he smokes a 20 mile an hour over hand pitch from 30 maybe 50 feet away which blows my mind because he's consistent as well and weighs 15 more pounds than my 7 year old so he will probably be swinging for the fences in Little League I hope
