Kevin Gallagher has written a book that provides a process to parents and coaches on how to teach children to hit a baseball or a softball. It is a process that will dramatically increase the chances of any child to make contact with the ball.Hitting a baseball is hard and very few people know how to teach children or young adults how to hit.Throwing batting practice to a child is not teaching them to hit.This book is designed to convince the vast audience of Parents that they, regardless of their background, can teach their child to make contact with a baseball/softball, by providing a simple process that will make sense to them and their child.If we don't teach our kids to hit, they will get frustrated and quit.The book is an easy read and is a story of the state of Baseball today, and takes us on a journey on how the length of Major League games, the late hour finishes, the Launch Angle Swing and the infatuation of the Home Run, as well as the amount of non-action during games, has all contributed to the games declining popularity in America and the disappearing participation of America's youth. It is a story full of anecdotes, quotes and eye popping statistics that makes the book enjoyable, but always leading to the inevitable conclusion that making contact with the baseball is the only way you will keep a child involved in the game?? and ultimately create more action inside the game.At the books conclusion, Kevin lays out a simple 8 Step Process to make contact with the ball.It is a process for the parent to learn, understand, and own. Then, and only then, the parent will have the knowledge and confidence to teach their child.In addition to the written process, and numerous entertaining illustrations, there are links to a 24 minute instructional video broken down step-by-step to help you visualize what is being taught.
