Help.....coaching softball for the first time
Im going to sit down and come up with a more specific game plan. I want to coach the girls in a progressive manner so that they develop and fine tune their skills.

Help.....coaching softball for the first time
Hi everyone, I think I bit off a little more than I can chew. I signed up to help coach my daughter's softball team. I thought that I would be "helping" a head coach or someone that knew what they were doing. As it turns out there is no "head coach" for the team. Its only myself, another...- leoskee
