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...
Last regular season LL game tonight. First State Frenzy 2 (DE) Sat and Sun. Yes, it's going to be a challenge keeping them hydrated and cool this weekend. Good luck everyone!
Saturday 3 game friendly in Delaware then some down-time Halloween craziness @ Sixflags. Sunday afternoon rec league fall ball game. DD is really enjoying her new team. Tomorrow should be fun, well except for the waking her up at 5:45 part. Good luck everyone!!
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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.
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
@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...
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...
