8 year old wont swing the bat
Its my son's first year doing baseball. He practices all the time and has a pretty decent swing. The issue is that when he goes to bat, he wont swing and just hopes he gets a ball. We take him to the batting cages and he will swing no problem, same when we practice with him. Its just once he gets up there, he wont even try. I think he is afraid to strike out because he did his first game and one of the kids made him feel bad about it.
How can I build his confidence so that he will swing?
Hes in person pitch.
