It is a nice time of year. The weather is finally getting warmer and it staying lighter out longer. For many young children this marks the beginning of their first season playing baseball. This is a time when it is important to nurture a child’s experience so baseball will be a pass time they will enjoy for years to come. The most important thing is that the child has fun. As a coach you have to incorporate fun into every practice while at the same time teaching the children the basics of the game.
Handing out a trophy to all of the kids on the team is a great way to celebrate the team’s accomplishments and keep the kids engaged in the game. Since the trophy is for little kids it is important that the trophy is fun as well. A pinwheel trophy is a fun trophy to hand out. The trophy actually spins. It is a colorful trophy that a child can actually play with. A squish ball trophy is another great idea for a kid’s trophy. There is actually a squish ball that the kids can remove from the trophy and they can play with. This particular trophy is a great kid’s trophy because most kids aren’t interested in something that is meant to just sit in their room. Kids can actually play with the trophy.
Enjoy the warm weather and get a local little league team started. Be part of child’s love of baseball. Remember to incorporate fun in your practice this even includes fun baseball trophies.
