Tools and Tips
Managing a Little League team requires organization. Field practices, batting cage time, and game preparation are all part of delivering a quality experience to the kids. Below are some resources that may help you in managing or coaching your EVLL team.
 
Communications
Setting up phone tree or other form of communication branch helps keep your parents informed of any changes in practice or games schedules. One option is a team message center. You can create your own for your team. Also, email is a great way to communicate.
 
Coach Clinics
Each year, Eastview Little League coordinates clinics for coaches of all levels. The clinics cover the development of players on both mental and physical levels. Info on this years coaches clinic to come.
 
Practice Planning
Practice time is when skills, knowledge and sportsmanship are taught. Young players are limited in their mental bandwidth, so practices should be well planned and efficient. Break practices up into individual drill stations versus conducting a one hour scrimmage. Limit stations to small, manageable groups and rotate stations every 8-10 minutes.
