Not sure if a district rule (5 HS,s) or a state rule, MN 7-8th graders can play no higher then freshmen team unless P or C. And only V if for emergencies in the P or C spot.
Example Had one year with only one healthy pitcher going into state tourney and brought along an 8th grader
, a Demarni Insane is end loaded. TPS CVL is end loaded. A Worth Supercell EST is end loaded. Barrel is evenly made for a balance feel, but feels heavier because of more weight in whole barrel with a lighter handle. So a heavier feeling bat, not a end loaded feeling bat. There is a difference.
DD got to try a new Prism+ while trying about 10 different bats today. Said it felt like a CF but heavier. Not end weighted but heavier. Bat guy said that is because handle is made of lighter material so there is more weight in the barrel for a heavier fell
14U. screwed either way on who it goes against. DD1 SS DD2 the pitcher. DD1 was more pissed at herself for having it in the glove and dropping it then her sister
SS took a 2 step flying dive at a screaming line drive, had ball caught and only came out when glove hit ground. ump called it right as no catch.
but is it scored as an error because ball was first caught then dropped with contact with ground or infield hit because of more then ordinary...
3-2 count batter thought 2nd strike was 3rd strike. batter returned to dugout. Ump called her out for leaving field of play. Now this was 10u and I was a first year coach so did not know better.
Next week asked another ump about the call and said it was the stupidest thing he had heard in...
DD loves her Vinci catcher mitt, great padding and the pocket is one of the deepest I’ve ever seen. Not the biggest pocket. But you will never see a ball “pop” out of it.
Only down fall is they are a pain to brake in.
Vince runs specials often.
Basically got 3 gloves for a little over the...
90% of catholic first communions are done during Sunday mass. Sometimes like where I went if the church is bigger they will split it up and you can choose different mass times or a few different dates.
Each church or area can be different based on tradition. I Know of one church that would...
In the great white north of MN it's usually the schools who have the shut down pitcher. The school where my twins will be going was in title game 2 of last 3 years do to a flame thrower. Problem was if they faced another flame thrower it usually was a 1-0, 2-1 game with loser making that one...
In our area HS fields are off limits during season. Once season is over can be used but I believe a small fee for upkeep is charged. City fields are first come unless booked for leagues which is almost every night during week from 5 to dark.
I'm new to HS ball. But that I know of no official HS game has ever been played inside in MN. You might have one game in two weeks or four in week due to weather.
Never make any plans that cant be changed due to rescheduling games all the time.
Local HS has enough girls for 4 teams this year. V, JV, B/JV2 and 9th grade. Problem is 40 plus girls 3 pitchers and 2 catchers. Head coach likes to keep roster size down for more playing time for all so wants to create 4 smaller roster teams.
Coach asked Booster Pres for names of players he...
Easton helmet and shins. Schutt chest protector. The Schutt really balldie, no bounce. DD has a really round head and tried pretty much every brand and model of helmet. Easton was the only one that did not make it feel like her brain was getting squeezed out.
Just catcher gloves this time. Marucci's can be had for $249. was thinking the Marucci, HOH, nokoma plus series and liberty advance.
DD is a second year 12 who has the talent to justify a high end glove.
Already tried the Mizuno classic pro and said hand stall was to small.
