Abstract: A stance and stride training aid for determining and training individuals on a proper batting stance and a proper batting stride. The training aid provides for a home plate reference and two stance indicators positioned on opposite sides of the home plate reference. Each of the stance indicators is gridded into rows and columns to provide feet positioning sectors that are individually represented by numbers or letters of the alphabet. The training aid also provides for stride indicators which correspond to the rows from which they extend for indicating the proper stride when swinging a bat.
