    First year 14's plus middle school sports

    I’m dealing with this exact injury with my DD currently. She’s a center fielder and hitter. She went to a college recruiting day and I believe she was a bit overzealous. That coupled with the 6 days per week vb practices and she’s got a strain. Working with the trainer now doing stretches and...

    How'd your tryouts go?

    Choices... would you prefer your DD join a B team with great coaching as a bottom 1/3 player or a C team with decent coaching as a top 1/3 player? Which is more important, more playing time or better competition (both within the team vying for a starting position and playing games) My DD is...

    How'd your tryouts go?

    DD aged out of her TB team from last season. It was her first year playing TB. She never attended tryouts last year, was invited to a couple of practices last fall as they needed to fill a few roster spots and was offered a position. So this is her first tryout season and I was hoping to take...

    Well- Let me Lower My Expectations.......

    Can someone clarify the comment about the book not being "official" unless it is kept in the dugout? And by what sanctions ie USSSA, ASA, Little League etc. I score our LL books behind the fence next to the dugout. And DD first USSSA tournament is coming up soon and would like to know for...

    Aroldis Chapman

    Our TB manager/HC whose daughter also pitches bought the whole team (his own money, not from the team account) Schutt face masks. Our organization does not require them, but I bet every single one of the girls will be wearing them lest they insult his generosity. Btw, DD already wore a mask at...

    Softball trending down?

    My immediate area is trending up. The amount of girls that tried out for HS was a lot more than last year, and half of the girls are freshmen. TB teams and LL are at an increase as well. And LAX is huge around here too. In fact, older DD played rec LAX from 10y/o to HS sophomore before she...

    Sad Day for Me

    Please share your knowledge and love of the game with the younger girls!! And kudos to you as a parent for your daughter to have the ability to make that choice without fear of hurting your relationship.

    Uniforms with an optic yellow softball logo

    In USSSA the rule book only states that the glove may not have optic yellow, does not say anything about the uniform color or logo or letters other than everyone's must be the same. Rule 2 Sec. 3 + 8

    Rec league and TB team?

    @cmustangsfp "Does your rec league bring in pitching coaches? Do they mandate that coaches learn the proper way to teach throwing, hitting, baserunning, etc.? Or do they just let Joe/Jane Volunteer teach them any old way that they want?" They do rely on volunteers. DXH is one of those. In his...

    Rec league and TB team?

    So...what happened? Did you continue to coach rec? Did your DD play TB, both? Do you now have a different opinion about TB? If so, what changed your mind? DXH has made some comments to allude to exactly what you described. I'm still hopeful that he will eventually get over being mad at me...
