Nolan had his first t-ball practice this past Tuesday! Of course he did wonderful!! ;) He seems to really enjoy it! Tuesday he practiced the throwing technique of making sure the arm was in an L shape and up by his ear and then throwing down on one knee. The coach also gave us some "high dollar" equipment to practice w/. He cut out the bottom of a milk jug and taped the edges. He also gave us a squishy ball w/ the intention of the players to toss the ball up and catch it w/ the jug. We are still working on the concept of tossing the ball up - Nolan likes to hold it over his head and just drop it into the jug. Thursday we tried a drill for the players to learn to throw the ball to first base when it is hit to them. They also got a chance at batting. We had to take a leave of absence from Tae Kwon Do for about 8-10 weeks because of the t-ball practice being on the same evenings.
