I play in a rec team (Age:13-15), just preparing for a travel team in feb.

I have a habit of throwing away my bat after i swing, and after I hit a double today, the umpire told me i was out for throw my bat....
If you ever did that, how did you fix it?

Or how do you fix it?
 
I don't know why you would throw a bat, just drop it and run. Also, throwing a bat actually takes more time than dropping it, so you're negatively affecting your ability to run to first base.
 
If it is slipping out of your hands wear batting gloves.

Practice hitting off a tee, hit the ball about 10 times - on number 11
run to First.

This will Get you into the habit of hanging onto the bat because your going to hit again 1-10.

Can also be tried with "soft toss"
