Uncle Coach Teaching Baseball
I haven’t had any kids of my own yet, but I do have 4 nephews and the two oldest ones I have played coach to over the years. My oldest nephew is now 16 years old and he has a brother that is now 14. Their younger brothers are twins and they just recently turned 4, so they are still a little too young for sports. I have worked with the two older ones with various sports as they were growing up. The 16 year old still plays sports and the 14 year old never has enjoyed sports like me and his older brother.
I was their uncle and coach in the backyard and the oldest one has really learned a lot from me. He can now throw and hit a baseball very well and he also plays football for the high school team. He played with the same group of boys every year in baseball and he could throw the ball harder than the rest of the kids on his team. I never did have a radar gun to see exactly how hard he was throwing the ball, but I believed he would have been over 60 mph as a 12 or 13 year old kid growing up. I regret not having a radar gun to use with him and I think it would have helped him to throw the ball even harder than he does today. A radar gun that detects how fast a ball is moving is a great gift and parents should think about getting their kids one for Christmas this year.
Parents can go to Radar Sports and select from a variety of radar guns available. You have some that are not that expensive and would work for most parents teaching their kids baseball in the backyard. They also offer the really nice ones and these would be great for coaches that have a baseball team every year. These radar guns can be used for more than just baseball and those that play tennis, soccer, golf, hockey or softball could benefit from owning a radar gun too. A radar gun can work in a lot of different ways and parents and coaches should all get one to help teach their kids in sports.
