    2 different pitching styles - video link

    Hey S3 The hop is definitely more prominent in Australia, but there are still some US stride and daggers. My DD uses the stride and drag and finds the hop difficult for accuracy. I think the difficulty is more about what pitching technique is taught in Australia, very few and I mean very few...

    Rule Clarification

    By Chief umpire I mean plate umpire These are bylaws that have been created by this particular league, unsure why this is the case. Yes you are correct, the wrong decision was made and the game should have been played out under protest for which if upheld would have been a forfeit to the...

    Picture of IR

    Awesome James, love this.....very difficult to get right but once you get it, it stays forever. It seems to promote good top half resistance as well. With my DD in this video I find this knee drill the best to promote/isolate good IR and stabilization, natural top half resistance as well. Lots...

    Transitioning from 30' to 35' - pitching thoughts?

    Yup my DD has always trained at the next distance up and the larger ball for spin/strength practice. 1 or 2 nights per week we go back to regulation everything and work spots (full workout). This has worked very well for us. I must add that these sessions are short and sharp and only after post...
