King of the Mound | Youth Pitching Drill
First have all your players line up on the pitcher’s mound. The first player will step on the rubber and attempt to throw a strike. If he throws a strike, he goes to the back of the line.
If he misses, he is on the hot seat ( you can actually put out a bucket to sit on or just have the player stand near mound).If the next player throws a strike, he is out of the game. If the second player throws a ball, the first player goes to the back of the line and the second player is on the hot seat. Keep going until only one player is left. That player is the king mound. Winning this drill should earn a player some pitching time in the next game.
You can actually give a few more places to allow some success for your players that do not pitch often but want a chance. This game gives them something to strive for. We hope they will practice before/after practice , or at home so they can win King of the mound and get some game time.
Purpose of this pitching drill
This is a good game for those kids that want to pitch but have not yet practiced enough to take the mound. It offers an opportunity for all players to pitch and explains the why for you as a coach. You can actually have this as a station and leave your normal starting pitchers out(doing a different drill at another location) so that others have a chance for the reward.
Players learn the game in practice. However, practice does not have to be drudgery. If you turn the drills into games you can keep your player’s attention and that will allow them to focus better and learn more. Keep drills and practice games short and competitive will help youngsters get the most out of their time on the practice field.

We are true believers that developing a strong midsection, including the abs and lower back have a great impact in developing the torque needed todeliver the ball with high velocity. This commonly called the core.
This can be started as a youth baseball pitcher. Even though a solid core is important for all baseball players,It is a necessity for pitchers.
Once that landing foot hits, the rotation begins and the energy begins to be transfered into the midsection(the core)
Coaches Club members can go to the conditioning department to see 8 effective exercises to help strengthen the core. Play Ball Academy | Coaching Youth Baseball>
I’d advise incorporating some of these movements into the regular routine of youth baseball pitchers.
