Your search for the best tool to teach baseball/softball situations to your team so they can play smarter, faster and get better results on game day is finally over. Research shows people prefer to learn by SEEING IT, HEARING IT and DOING IT. In our experience, baseball and softball players are typically taught the game by HEARING IT and DOING IT. Rarely are they taught by SEEING IT. As a coach, it is important to keep all learning styles in mind when teaching your players the game.The more styles you can use, the more likely your players will learn the information faster and retain it. If you are not teaching visually, you may be limiting your team's ability to learn the game faster. Legendary football coach Vince Lombardi said it best when he said, "They call it coaching, but it is teaching. You don't just tell them, you show them the reasons". We couldn't agree more. That is why we created our Play Ball Situations board to help coaches visually teach baseball/softball situational concepts to their players. This magnetic dry erase board is NOW two-sided. It comes with a complete ball field and scoreboard printed on the front side and a blank white board on the back side. At 19.25" H x 27.25" W, it is 4x larger than a standard clipboard so it is big enough to teach the entire team at once. It is made from sturdy galvanized steel. The anodized aluminum frame includes a handle, hooks and snap clips. At less than 3 lbs., the board easily goes from practice to the games and can hang from a dugout fence or a clubhouse wall. The board is for softball and baseball and lets you replicate any situation your team might face. 11 positional magnets, 4 base runner magnets, 2 ball magnets, three dry erase markers and an eraser are included.
