One of the best youth baseball infield drills doesn’t require fancy equipment.

I’ve used this funnel drill with every age group because it teaches the fundamentals that young infielders need to make routine plays consistently.

✅ Field the ball out front.
✅ Funnel it to the center of your body.
✅ Make a quick, clean transfer.

The best defenders aren’t always the most athletic, they’re the ones who repeat the fundamentals every single rep.

💾 Save this drill for your next baseball practice.
📤 Share it with another coach or baseball parent.

That funnel drill is perfect — field it out front, bring it to the center, clean transfer every rep! ⚾ Love fundamentals taught this clearly for young infielders. The mental side of staying locked in rep after rep is our whole thing over on our profile 🧠

This looks great! Thanks for sharing this. This also seems like a great drill kids can do at home as well.

Do you pass them the ball with your hand or use a fungo up close?
