The chart was developed with input from our coaches and local high school and college coaches. The goal of this Chart is to: introduce skills at an age when the player will be able to understand the skills they are being taught. have the underlying, more fundamental skills in place to allow them to pursue new skills correctly. expose the player to all fundamentals and avoiding missing key learnings due to coaching styles and coverage pre-dispositions provide the coaches with a roadmap that will help them focus their practices. The chart is not intended to restrict the skills that coaches teach. We do ask that they focus on the skills that have been identified for their age level at every practice, and reinforce the skills that were taught at the lower levels. The Coaches Clinics that are held at the beginning of each Spring Season discuss the skills that should be taught at each age level and provide examples of drills that can be used during the season. The Coaches Handbook also contains examples of drills that can be used. @ %&  no=>?> ? @  & F@  1h/ =!"#$% i8@8 NormalCJ_HaJmH sH tH 6`6 Heading 1$@& 5>*\<A@< Default Paragraph Font@ %&  no=>?>?B0000 00 00 00 000000@ @ @ B ouB3333Matthew GormandC:\Documents and Settings\mgorman\Application Data\Microsoft\Word\AutoRecovery save of Document2.asdMatthew GormanDC:\Personal\Baseball\SKills\Wellesley Little League Skills Chart.docMatthew GormanC:\Documents and Settings\mgorman\Application Data\Microsoft\Word\AutoRecovery save of Wellesley Little League Skills Chart.asdMatthew GormanDC:\Personal\Baseball\SKills\Wellesley Little League Skills Chart.doc> agK, 54wR^ hh^h`OJQJo( ^`OJQJo( ^`OJQJo(o pp^p`OJQJo( @ @ ^@ `OJQJo( ^`OJQJo(o ^`OJQJo( ^`OJQJo( ^`OJQJo(o PP^P`OJQJo(h ^`OJQJo(h ^`OJQJo(oh pp^p`OJQJo(h @ @ ^@ `OJQJo(h ^`OJQJo(oh ^`OJQJo(h ^`OJQJo(h ^`OJQJo(oh PP^P`OJQJo(>agK4w                  @@p@UnknownGz Times New Roman5Symbol3& z Arial?5 z Courier New;Wingdings"hcƇT !20P2Q$Wellesley Little League Skills ChartMatthew GormanMatthew GormanOh+'0 0< X d p|%Wellesley Little League Skills Chartft ellMatthew Gormaneattatt Normal.dotmMatthew Gormane2ttMicrosoft Word 9.0a@40@B@g T՜.+,0 hp  Dimensional Insight P %Wellesley Little League Skills Chart Title  !"%Root Entry FX '1Table WordDocument"SummaryInformation(DocumentSummaryInformation8CompObjjObjectPoolX X   FMicrosoft Word Document MSWordDocWord.Document.89q
