    At bat or while fielding? Either way, practice makes better. In fielding, go out with family and friends every chance you get and start slow and small. Focus on good form. Work on getting behind the ball. Check out youtube for videos on baseball fielding drills and learn how to handle the various situations.

    With hitting, start out slow and use good form. It helps to spend a little $ and get a few lessons. Building good form builds good confidence. Practice makes better. The more time you can spend with a bat in your hands and taking swings, the better you'll get.
