    Winter Hitting

    Just finished soccer and volleyball and trying to get ready for spring softball. We just started swinging without instruction and here is where we are. No instruction was given except for trying to get a feel for the pressure in her feet with weight transfer. I'm not sure where the...

    1st Year 14U Swings

    We've finally wrapped up basketball and soccer and have finally found some time to take a few swings. Not really working on anything just swinging to knock off the rust. She's swinging a 31" 28 oz wood bat off the tee. Moved the ball up and down and in and out just to get back in the swing...

    Video Update 12U

    Finally got around to videoing a game. A little background, throws fastball and change-up. Throws pretty hard for our age group. Usually has very good control. We have been working on trying to get a little more leg drive and had been wiping the wall with the ball. At times, when all...

    Illegal Pitch Question

    Posted this in the pitching forum, but thought it might get answered here. 12U Game, runner on third two outs. Our pitcher starts her motion and for some reason stops her delivery and starts over. Umps call IP, and calls the ball but doesn't reward the runner on third home. Pitcher throws the...

    Illegal Pitch Question

    12U Game, runner on third two outs. Our pitcher starts her motion and for some reason stops her delivery and starts over. Umps call IP, and calls the ball but doesn't reward the runner on third home. Pitcher throws the next pitch for a strike and the base ump stops the play after the next...

    ASA Rule on Dropped Third Strike

    Can someone explain to me why the rulebook states that the batter runner is not out on a dropped third strike until they "enter the team area." Rule 8 Secton 2, D. In a league game, we had an opposing player swing at the third strike, pitched ball was low, bounced into catchers glove. Batter...

    Bunt Question

    Batter pivots to bunt, fouls the ball directly to the catchers chest protector, hits catchers arm, bounces up and catcher catches the ball. Catcher never moved from her squat position. Is the batter out or is it treated like a swinging foul tip that the catcher catches? In our situation...

    New Video Camera 11 Yr Old Video

    Finally nice enough to get outside and pitch. Have a new video camera and had my 7 year old video a quick pitching session. It's amazing what you can see on video slowed down. Looking for comments to help improve. Thanks

    11 Year Old Video

    First time posting or even taking video of my daughter. Thought I would post and see what advice I could receive. I try not to screw things up too bad. Read more on the forums than post, but am slowly learning. She typically hits pretty well. I see lots of things wrong, but not sure where...

    Umpiring Question

    Another 10 year old

    Hello, Finally got some video of my 10 year old daughter. Thanks in advance for any help and suggestions. Things that I see are a little forward lean at release and could use a little more leg drive. Thanks again, DB

    Help with stepping out

    Just started hitting with my 10 year old DD and for some reason she is stepping out when swinging. When I point it out, she corrects for a few swings and then starts stepping out again. Tried putting a bucket outside of her front foot, and it works for awhile and then it's back to stepping...

    Daily Hitting

    Just curious as to what people recommend for daily hitting practice to keep things interesting. Our team is mostly 9 year olds in a travel light situation. They take it pretty serious and are willing to work to improve. Thanks!
