Practice Support

Being a manager or coach requires time, patience, and a basic knowledge of the game of baseball.  As a manager or coach, you have more interaction with young people than anyone else in Little League and are vital to the success of Fairfax Little League.  This page is designed to provide you with the resources necessary to assist in your coaching experience.

Included are a few links that you can use to find a comprehensive set of resources from a few professional organizations to better manage your practices and games.  To make it easier to identify specific drills, we have included links to a variety of baseball drills.  Drills marked as easy are intended for our lower levels (Tee Ball, Coach Toss, Rookie, A), while those marked as medium are typically for the Kid Pitch levels in our Minors (AA, AAA) and Majors programs.  The ones marked as advanced are typically for the Teenage programs.  The skill level of your team may differ, though, so please use whichever drills you find appropriate.  Also included are a few practice plans that can be used as a starting point to design your practices.  After a few practices, we encourage you to find the drills and approach that work best for your team.  

If you have any practice plans or drills you would like to share, please email [email protected]
