One partner will throw short hops so the ball is hitting within three feet of the other partner. Do twenty then switch
When you're fielding, concentrate on having your hands out in front of you and accepting the ball with soft hands using your top hand as well.
Field the ball then use good footwork and make the throw back to your partner who will be presenting a target.
Once you master the short hop in front, work on moving the ball around using your backhand and forward hand.
Outfield Accuracy Drill
For an outfielder a good way to work on your accuracy is by laying a trash can at home plate with the open side facing whatever part of the outfield you're throwing from. Have a teammate (or yourself) throw up a pop fly. Catch the ball moving forward and on a crow hop throw the ball on one hop to the trash can. Footwork is the key to this drill!
Fielders Tip - Shield the Sun
If you're playing a day game the sun will be a factor. Use your glove to shield the sun when a pop fly is hit your way.
