Wet Field Practice

When I was in KY we played at a public park and was never ready by the start of the preseason. We had 6 weeks of preseason practice and we would spend at least 4 of those weeks on the parking lot. We used yellow machine dimple balls for groundballs. We did virtually everything we would do on a dry field but sometimes the speed would be scaled back. Obviously we didn't do any type of diving or sliding so we had to stress hustle in everything else to compensate for the loss there.

Sometimes you can set up a 90 foot square in the outfield using cones or bags; at least you get the proper throwing angles and distances for your infielders.
lots of pop ups and fly balls for everyone if you can get on the grass at all.
if not the old parking lot is what it is.

practice diving?

Thanks for all the suggestions. The fields we play on are owned by the city and...well I won't get into the names I could call them when it comes to access to the fields. Anyways, I'm afraid it will be too wet to get into the outfield with out messing up the grass, so I'd like to stay on the black top. To put things into perspective, we could fit 3-4 full sized infields into the parking lot at our complex. I'm thinking we're going to spend the day on bunt coverages, first and third steals, and run downs. With 27 kids I have to have a lot going at once to keep their attention spans, which could be compared to that of a bird seeing something shiny.

I contemplated sliding and diving practice on the black top just to toughen up the players that are to afraid to get their dress dirty to dive on the field. I'm sure I could get away with that!
