Fielding Drills: Introduction to 360 Degree Fielding

Purpose: To introduce the idea of staying alert and backing up in the field: 360 degree fielding.

Description: The coach (c) hits the ball (in the air or on the ground) to any fielder then shouts which end the ball should be returned to. If the shy is at the bowlers end the other fielders must back up the throw and return it to the coach.

Variation: Add batters trying to steal runs. Keep score between pairs.
