Baserunning Fundamentals
Aggressive doesn't mean reckless. This is the order we teach baserunning in, from a beginner's first lesson onward.
The Progression
Running Through the Base
The first habit to build — never slow down before first base.
Intro to Sliding
Basic form before speed. Get comfortable going down before adding pace.
Intro to Stealing
Reads and first step, before worrying about raw speed.
Tagging Up
When to go, and how to hold until contact is made.
