This particular player plays on two teams, one team is a tournament team. Coaches have total confidence, player gets time. Other...- Pop time 00

Private coach vs team coaches
What do you do when your daughter's private hitting coach is teaching different technique than her team coaches are teaching? How do you handle that? Her private coach is a well respected coach and I also like her team coaches. They are just teaching slightly different footwork. Don't want to...- Pop time 00
