I have thoroughly enjoyed this site for one reason, for every question that you ask you get a dozen different answers, but they all seem correct in one way or another.
Here is my question. I have a 12 yo boy (13 in Sept), just finished up a 72 game schedule for 3 different teams. Had a great offensive season(batted over .700 with 19 home runs and 107 RBI's) and was a solid SS/3B and pitcher. He is passionate about 2 things, baseball and his trampoline. But now the rest of his friends are into football season, and he doesn't play. He doesn't want to just sit around until April (spring ball in IA). He works on baseball skills almost every day (of his own volition, no pressure from me, but is there anything that you guys would recommend he work on specifically. He will be moving to 60/90 fields next year if that means anything.
Any ideas would be appreciated, I am just trying to stay one step ahead of him. He will be starting some core work and a few new rotational hitting drills in Late September (I am making him rest for 6 weeks). Thank you all in advance
