This year, we signed Zac up with a baseball league. He really lucked-out, not just because his team was the best in the league (15-1 and tourney champs), but because he had some amazing coaches, particularly the head coach.
Zac started off doing ok but was no star. It was even a little hard to watch, maybe because I love and know softball and assumed he would be a natural. Toward mid-season he couldn't make contact with the ball. You could almost count on him striking-out. After talking to Buddy, we decided to do some things to help him out at home. He and Steve played soft-toss in the yard and would throw the ball. He also had regular practice with the team. The last 3 weeks of the season, it clicked and he made contact every time. I think he went 9/9 at the end.
It was over-all a very good experience for Zac and for us as parents.
