Catching Tips: Giving Signs To The Pitcher

When giving signs to the pitcher remember:

Place your glove around your left knee to shield the third base coach from the signs.

Point your knees at the pitcher to keep the 1st and 3rd base coach’s from stealing your signs.

Keep your sign hand deep into your crotch, so no one can see the sign except the pitcher and SS/2B.

Don’t place your sign so low so that they can be seen by the other team.

Practice giving signs in a mirror at home. (Do it from Pitcher’s angle and base coach angle)
