Obviously you should do this. Consider getting a handheld camera to tape the opposing coaches signals as well.

You kid (I assume), but the other coaches in my 8/9 year old baseball league have all sorts of elaborate signs to setup bunts and "steals" (can't leave the base before the ball crosses the plate in this league). Never mind that none of the kids can bunt with a coach pitching (much less another kid who's as likely to bean them in the head as throw a strike) or make the throw from C to 2B.

No, I do not kid. Take a hint from Bill Belichick and embrace The Honorable Patriot Way.

About baseball, I remember running squeeze plays as an 8/9 yr old on a 60-foot diamond. It works if you have a wiry little bastard on third and you tell him the Boogeyman's coming!
