    Right Field/Key Attributes

    Specialty Position

    Right Field is a specialty position . We all know that in Little League the strongest players play in the infield. This doesn’t mean that outfielders are not important! Quite the contrary, picking up outs in the outfield is a huge bonus. The right fielder can be your weakest fielder but they need a strong arm and a will to back up first base on almost every play.

    The right fielder need not be quick, but it is a bonus if the are. They will need to be able to track fly balls but the least of them are hit to them. They have to have the strongest arm because they often throw to first base and need to be able to fire to third base also.

    Key Characteristics

    Here are some characteristics of a good left fielder :

    • Dedicated
    • Strong Arm
    • Committed to back up
    • Able to track fly balls

    A right fielder that makes every routine play as well as some spectacular ones can get a good pitcher some very key outs.

    Can you think of any other valuable characteristics a right fielder should have? Please share them.
