- Proper Equipment: Offer advice on bat size and length.
- Tee Work: Break down the mechanics of a swing. (Ex. Inside, Outside, Middle, Extension, Contact)
- Hitting Mechanics: To study and improve upon the mechanics involved in hitting, which includes optimizing a player’s swing for either maximizing their bat speed or their time for plate coverage.
- At-Bat Preparation: Understanding dugout etiquette, preparing yourself as a in-the-hole hitter, on-deck hitter and at-bat batter
- Plate Presence: Explaining body placement in box, learning when and how to take signs.
