Cardinals Swings

 

 

Key Points:

 

1. Get Off your Back Leg

2. Hips Lead the Way: Turn Hard!

3. The Load is the Swing: Big Load!

4. Match Plane of Pitch: Hit the Ball in the Air! (Front Elbow Up)

5. Turn Through the Ball: Back Shoulder to Ball, Back to Dugout

 

 

Remember:

1. Early and Slow

2. Loose and Relaxed

3. Takes are the Swing Stopping, Not Starting

4. Swing with your Big Muscles
