    Happy Birthday Bill Hillhouse

    According to Facebook, June 22 is Hillhouse's birthday. Hopefully those that have not already sent to his Go Fund Me will do so with the birthday spirit. I see it's not looking good for his goal. I've donated a few times (anonymously) I hope others will be kind and giving. I've not...

    Hillhouse update

    Hey all, I got an email yesterday from Bill's wife saying he has been hospitalized again. Thankfully he was released after 24 hour observation but apparently his EKG showed some abnormalities that worried the doctors. I'm sure prayers would be appreciated. And another hospital stay...

    Bill Hillhouse health

    As a pretty regular student of Bill's my DD has gone more than 6 months without a lesson. All my emails asking about lessons have been met with replies about not being too well (never going into specifics). Today I got a mass email from someone, whom I believe is his wife, with a Go Fund me...

    Hillhouse gets props on ESPN

    I know Boardmember likes to think that anyone who says complimentary things about Bill is "on his payroll" but, in spite of that, I thought it was pretty cool on ESPN today that Amanda Scarboro mentioned Bill on the broadcast. A pitcher entered the game in relief where Amanda mentioned that...

    BH lesson tonight

    DD had her first lesson with Hillhouse in quite a while. Those that know him know BH is absolutely hilarious with the girls, makes them have fun, and does teaching in a way the girls learn while having a great time doing it. Over the years, I've seen his lessons with 10-20 girls who have...

    Thought some may enjoy this, you may have to copy/paste link. If I'm reading this right, it's not even his local newspaper article. It's somewhere in NY state. News

    new riseball clip from BH on FP chat show

    Interesting timing that this clip came out on the FP chat show while there is that other riseball thread going on. Thank you to FP Chat and Gary Leland for making this video. Funny how this clip debunks a lot of what my oldest daughter was initially taught about the rise. "Turn the...

    watch men's fastpitch online

    The men's world championship is being played right now in Ontario. If you go the link I'm attaching you will be able to watch the games for free. Obviously you cannot see how fast these guys actually throw based off the computer screen but it's pretty cool to watch with announcers. By...

    Fastest pitcher in the world

    From having seen him live, I can tell you this doesn't even give it the slightest justice to how fast this actually is. I thought you guys might find this cool to see. I once asked Bill H. if Folkard uses "HE" and he said he sorta does but not the way it's traditionally taught; followed...

    Strategy question

    Coach Hillhouse sent an email out to about 20 parents of some of the older kids he coaches yesterday asking for input. So, I thought it'd be fun to do it on here too. Basically, he is filming a new DVD (possibly 2) on Monday and one of them will be about Pitching Strategy. For those who...

    congrats Hillhouse

    NPF tv ad

    The Jennie Finch ad on the NPF game (ESPN2) Makes me throw up in my mouth. Why did she advertise a pitching form that she doesn't use herself?
