    tournament peeves

    I have one! Motor homes or other large RV's that take up 6 parking spaces, plus 2 more for tables and chairs when there isn't enough parking in the first place! Grrrrrrr.

    DD's team may be imploding

    This is kinda what I'm leaning toward. I'll pass all this good advice on to my daughter. Thanks everyone!

    DD's team may be imploding

    Yes, the season ends at the end of July. There are several big tournaments (travel) scheduled, and the prevailing sentiment is that parents are resenting the expense of traveling, knowing our girls will be out after the first game on Sunday, really limiting the possibility of any college...

    DD's team may be imploding

    In this past weekend's tournament, in our first game of bracket play, he pitched our #3 pitcher and left her in the entire game, until it was too late to catch up. They started hitting off of her in the 2nd inning. He said he was saving our #1 for later games. Which there weren't any of...

    DD's team may be imploding

    DD plays on a 16U team. During tryouts, she was told her favorite coach of all time was going to be the HC. Turned out not to be the case. He's been an AC. Have always been unhappy about this bait 'n switch. AC has been just as frustrated with the situation. HC makes questionable coaching...

    DD ordered to intentionally hit the batter

    How did you deal with it?

    DD ordered to intentionally hit the batter

    This is a new team for her. I'm hoping you're right and the coach was having a temporary moment of bad judgment. I'd hate to think he might ask her to do it again.

    DD ordered to intentionally hit the batter

    My dd (16) was pitching yesterday and her team was struggling. The other team was making a gesture whenever the crossed the plate that our coach viewed as disrespectful, so he called a timeout and met with DD and her catcher. He instructed DD to intentionally hit the next batter. Throw it in...

    No catcher for pitching lessons

    I just don't have the reflexes anymore. She throws too hard for me.

    No catcher for pitching lessons

    That's a really good suggestion and I will check into it. Thx!

    No catcher for pitching lessons

    Long gone are the days where I can sit on a bucket and catch for my daugher, age 16. And now we have an ongoing problem with getting her team catchers to commit to coming to her lessons every week to catch for her. We had one who said she'd do it, but has missed more sessions than she's...

    Colorado Freedom tournament next week

    Thank you, I had seen that one and others, but they give absolutely no information about the actual tournament. Am I just not looking in the right place? This is kind of frustrating.

    Colorado Freedom tournament next week

    Hi all, My daughter's team is playing next week in Bloomfield, CO at the Freedom tournament. I can't find a website that shows the schedule or anything really specific about the tournament. There are some blurbs here and there, but nothing like what I'm used to seeing for a big tournament...

    Daughter punished by coaches this past weekend

    Yeah, probably, but I am trying to be as objective as I can about this. I do appreciate everyone's input about this. What I'm taking away from the discussion is that I should encourage my daughter to talk to her coach about what happened, apologize (even if she doesn't necessarily have to)...
