Philosophy on Training the Youth Ballplayer to Play Multiple Positions

I believe it's the job of the youth Coach and Manager to allow players to play multiple positions and to provide the baseball instruction necessary to play those positions. Most young players that have to play in the outfield all year long are going to get bored. With all we are going to discuss about keeping focused and motivating the players, it will be impossible to accomplish if a player only sees the outfield grass during a season. Outfielders need to field ground balls and infielders need to catch fly balls. All players have to throw and catch. We will try to develop all players to play in the infield and outfield. The baseball skills they learn in each area will help them to become a more complete player. They are too young to have a coach determine where they should or will end up playing when they are older.
