Lessons from a Dropped Ball
There is something to be learned even in a dropped ball. Baseball is all about what you do with the ball, and that includes catching, hitting, snagging and throwing it. We don’t usually think of a dropped ball as a lesson opportunity.
However …
Perhaps, it teaches something about the coach, the leader, the teacher as much as about the player. Baseball coaches don’t go into coaching Little League expecting every player to be perfect, make every catch and hit a homerun every time.
They know losses, dropped balls and missed swings are part of the process. It’s all a learning curve. You teach the how’s and why’s of the game.
And you let the player who fumbled back on the field to try and try again.
It’s a process … catches and fumbles, dropped balls and strikeouts.
Something to think on,
in about 60 seconds.
