    Any way to find out if a college is already set at a particular position?

    Hello all. Anyone have experience with trying to find out if a particular college/university team is already set at a particular position (ex. we've got all the 2021 pitchers we want), so one can avoid potentially wasting time/money on their camp? Is that a question that is properly put to a...

    Input on hiring a scouting/recruiting organization like NSR???

    All -- This input has been great. Can't thank you guys enough. I think I can get the process done on my own (with all of the help on this forum, that is) rather than spending tons of money on a recruiter, at least at this point. DD is on a travel team for a good-sized organization, and we're in...

    Input on hiring a scouting/recruiting organization like NSR???

    Several parents of players on my DD's travel team have hired a recruiter/scouting organization (National Scouting Report, in particular) to help their DDs find a college to play at. The cost is an obvious down side -- it's pretty pricey from what I understand. Does anyone have any opinions on...

    The Official Fastpitch Foundations Thread ;)

    It was an excellent clinic. The best we have ever attended. And here's a link to a video of Mike trying to catch that wicked riseball if anyone is interested. Brave dude! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=02mQ3-G0kw8 Cheers!

    Which mechanics need most work? Input, please!

    Thanks for all of the great mechanical/technical input and advice. I figured drive mechanics and timing was a priority. So that's what we'll focus on next. The video and screen shot comparisons are invaluable. DJ and DNeeld -- definitely agree on the need for circle time. The issue for my...

    Thanks for letting me know. I'm youtube challenged, but I think I changed it to public now?

    Which mechanics need most work? Input, please!

    Hello everyone. My DD (13yo) has been trying to implement some of the important mechanics I've discovered on this board. We're making some progress but lots more to do. She decided not to play middle school ball this late summer/early fall. Instead we are going to try to keep working on...

    Help with elbow bruising, anyone?

    Thanks for this and all the other replies, everyone. I will try to get and put up a clip this week, but now that you've pointed out where the hips should be at contact/release, I think that is indeed the problem. I know from watching her pitch from behind that her hips are totally open when...

    Help with elbow bruising, anyone?

    My daughter hits her elbow on her hip bone when pitching and comes home from tourneys with a nasty bruise (and swelling) on her elbow. She said she doesn't even notice it when pitching and that doesn't hurt after despite the bruising, but it is obviously not a good thing and needs to be fixed...

    Opinions on Issue with PC, Please!

    My daughter (13yo) has a pitching coach that she (and I) like. Her teachings seem very consistent with IR. (We started working on IR a few months ago after I found this thread, and we started lessons with this PC about that same time). However, the PC believes that my DD's glove-arm swimming is...

    Thank you, Rocketech1. That explains it. Now . . . off to try to implement . . . Cheers!

    What do I Mean

    Hello. I am a new poster, but not a new reader of all of the wonderful information on this board. I have a question I thought perhaps someone could help with. My daughter seems to have lost what was a fairly consistent 11-5 or so spin, and now many of her pitches seem to be coming out in...
