Fastpitch Slap-Hitting Footwork Progression: Build the Crossover Step
A staged progression that builds a left-handed slapper's crossover-step footwork from a stationary line drill to live, on-the-move contact — turning lefty hitters into contact-and-speed threats out of the box.
⏱ ~20 min📋 ~20 slow no-ball footwork reps on a line, then add hands (no ball), then tee, then front toss, then slower live arm - layered progression
What you'll need
- Batting tee
- Bucket of softballs
- Field/chalk line or floor tape
- Fielding glove (intro variation)
- Stopwatch (optional)
