A youth's most under-rated hitting tool....

A Batting Tee is one of the most important hitting tools for our youth!  While your player is hitting off the tee you should be making sure he/she is keeping their elbow up and hands back, you don't want your player to wrap the bat around his/her neck ( have your player rest the bat on his/her shoulder then raise elbow and hands, this should give a good fundamental bat stance), the bat should be pointing up (45 degree angle).  Make sure your player is pivoting on their back foot, exploding with their hips, keeping their head down as they follow through with the swing.  Practice raising the tee to their "numbers" and lowering it to their knees...Inside...Outside...all the different areas of the strike-zone.
