Multi-colored balls for ball machine exercises

Here’s a great idea for ball machine drills. Get some multi-colored balls and mix them into your ball machine hopper with your regular yellow balls. The drill is very simple but very effective: Simply designate that whenever a multi-colored ball comes out of the machine the player has to hit it in a certain direction and when a yellow ball comes out they have to hit it in a different direction. This could obviously also be geared toward spin selection, arc selection, variations of power, and even shot selection such as drop shots and lobs. Post this idea on your bulletin board and use it to promote increased ball machine rentals. The potential is tremendous.
