    Skipping practice to sub for another team?

    Don't get me wrong. School ball comes 100% first whether it's practice or games, all the girls know this. This girl does miss quite a bit for school softball or travel basketball which she plays on a travel team put on by the middle school. I have no worries about the other team stealing...

    Skipping practice to sub for another team?

    Joined new team this year as AC after being a head coach for several years with agreement that I would take my own team for this organization next year. I had several players come with me and will be following me next year into 16U. I had one of my regular girls confide in me Friday that she...

    Rick Pauly clinic East Central Indiana

    Really looking forward to this clinic, and have already made our team a little upset by missing our first outdoor tournament to attend the clinic. Would love to reserve a 3x t-shirt for myself if possible. Quick question, I'm bringing a catcher for my daughter so I can video her and pay...

    Pitching help needed.

    Thanks for all the replies. What really baffles me with her is that she looks pretty good through her warm up drills, she has decent posture and gets good brush. It's when she goes to her full pitch everything we have worked on and all the good things of her warm up drills fall apart and she...

    Pitching help needed.

    I'm not sure of the pitch, I believe she was throwing fastballs, but I might have caught her on a different pitch. This clip is from the side a couple of days earlier.

    Pitching help needed.

    DD is 14 years old and been pitching about 4 years give or take. Switched to IR about a year ago. Speed was up around 50 to 52 when we made the switch, now anywhere around 47 to 50. Was making good progress until a few weeks ago she developed this release. We have been doing the 9 o'clock drill...

    evo shield chest protectors

    Won't let my DD pitch without one or her mask. She is first year 14u now but when she was first year 12u she used a heart guard. We were late to a game and I forgot to check to see if she had it on. She took a shot to the chest and the umpire didn't even wait, he went straight to the circle. By...

    Best Place for 2015 Xeno

    My DD is begging me to buy her a 2015 Xeno after using one last tournament. She swung a 33/23 & 32/22 and hit really well with both and the sound off the bat was incredible. Anybody know where I can find the best price for either of these bats?

    Parents calling out pitches.

    We played a tournament this weekend and had a bunch if parents from the other team sitting behind the backstop and telling the batters where our catcher was set up and calling out pitches when they could get them right. We did get a few by setting up outside and throwing down the middle, but...

    NFHS: Tagging with two stikes - foul ball

    Ball is dead? Sounds confusing to me. If the ball is dead after any foul ball, including the third one, how can anybody advance? I have to be reading something wrong.

    2 strike hitting

    I was a baseball player not a softball player, but I was always taught with two strikes to choke up on the bat and widen my stance. Used that with both my boys teams and now with my daughters.
