Coaching Resources

North West Little League has purchased Big Al’s online Program for all the Managers, Coaches and Parents in our league for 2024.

The coaching programs include videos on how to teach the skills, drills to incorporate into your practices, and help in identifying and correcting common mistakes. There are ready-to-go practice plans for the pre-season, regular season, and plans to help prepare for the post season. The strategy section covers positional play, and roles and responsibilities of players in game situations. It also has tips and plans to help you be effective as a coach on game day. Big Al has designed these Coaching programs to help you all season long!

The parent programs include videos and instruction on all the skills that your coach will be teaching this year. It also includes lots of fun drills, games and challenges you can practice at home so players can get stronger and improve their skills all at home. There is also a section on strategy with roles and responsibilities for every player on the diamond.  Finally, Big Al has created a set of Backyard Workouts for every skill. Go to the Big Al Way section for each skill and print off the Backyard Workouts checklist and keep track of the workouts you complete during the season.

The online content and video resources are best viewed on a larger computer screen. The complete navigational system and content package was not designed for handheld devices.
