Rounders: Batting Technique

Get the batting technique nailed down with fun practices to improve control and performance when you?re at the stand.

Four players working with 1 ball and 1 bat.

One of the 3 players throws the ball at the batter who has to tap the ball back to any of the 3 players so they can catch the ball and throw the ball back again.

One player is batter, one as back-stop, one as first base and other deep fielding.

The bowler feeds the ball to the batter.

The batter gets several balls feed them to practice hitting.

Divide players into two teams, one fielding and one batting.

The fielding team bowls 4 consecutive balls to a better. Once the batter has hit all 4 balls into the field, all of the batters on the batting team must run around all the bases at the same time, as many times as they can before all of the balls have been returned by the fielding team.

The next batter then does the same, and all of the batters run when all 4 balls have been hit. Do this for each batter on the batting team, before the fielding team goes in to bat.
