Playing golf has become a huge sport thanks to pros like Tiger Woods. With that being said, a lot of golfers have asked “How can I improve my golf swing?” We wrote a quick and easy golf swing tutorial that will help you to improve your swing and enable you to hit the ball further.

1. First step is to setup you upper body whether you are hitting on the driver or an iron. Setting up the ball opposite of the left armpit is very important. Then place your hands slightly ahead of the club head.

2. Having your body in the correct position will allow you to properly swing the golf club. To do this you will need to bend your knees with a slight decrease. Doing this will allow you some flexibility. Legs at shoulders length apart.

3. The most important part of your pre-swing is to keep your eyes on the golf ball with your chin tucked in. You also want to open up your waist which will allow some movement. Having your hips ready will allow you to be more agile when you get into your swinging motion.

4. At the back of your swing, utilize your flexibility to reach far back. Extend your range of motion while keeping your rotating torso directly over your right leg.

5. As you begin your swing, build up club head velocity by turning your torso and lower body quickly and pressing your right leg forward. Throughout your swing, waste as little energy as possible by maintaining your position above the ball.

6. Drive the ball using your hips, shoulders and wrists to concentrate his force and create a very high initial ball speed. This is the basic golf swing everyone uses.

7. Allow your golf club head’s momentum to extend far around your back, completing a long and smooth club head rotation.

In coaching tee ball, the children must learn the basic motor skills in order to play baseball when they get older. The children also learn how to participate in a team sport. As a Little League tee ball coach, you have the responsibility to get our children for the next step, baseball. Below I have 5 must-dos for coaching tee ball.

1. Coaches, you must be patient. You are working with very young children and at times your tee ball practice may resemble a day care setting. One of the most important things you will teach the children over the course of the season is team work and discipline.

2. No matter what, make sure you give all of the kids an equal chance to play. Even at this very young age, you will notice that some kids are much better than some others on your team. Always rotate player positions and give no preference to any players regardless of their ability. After all, these children will have to learn how to play all positions.

3. When I was coaching tee ball, I always applaud good effort after each drill and play as should you. Teach your kids that trying hard in practice and games will stick with them regardless of what sport they play. This will also carry on with them for the rest of their lives. They do look up to you!

4. While it might be hectic at times, teach the kids the basic rules of the game. Baseball is a complex game, but if your kids learn basic baseball rules in tee ball, they will feel more at ease as they move up in their league. We also stress safety with our team. This is a strict guide we follow. Baseball is a sport where kids swing metal bats and throw baseballs. Even in tee ball, an injury is a possibility.

5. Finally, if you have fun, they will have fun! We taught our kids drills in small stations. A hitting station off the tee, a hitting station just showing proper mechanics, and two fielding stations. We rotated the kids every 10 minutes and then played another team.
