Newer rules over the past few seasons
Pitching mechanics - double touch, etc., especially for a small rec leagues. Bad habits start here.
Commonly misunderstood rules - sofftball myths
- hands are not part of the bat
- tie goes to the runner
- must slide rule
- about to recieve
Lineup management: subs, DP/Flex (even though this is a rec league, this will help them to get to the next level.)
Game management:
- Communicating with umpires
- Appeals
If possible, offer optional on-field situations to visually demonstrate rules
