    HE coach willing to adapt?

    DW found a new PC for DD. We are very limited in a rural area so I was willing to give it a try. Within the first 5 minutes I knew she was HE and considered walking out. However she asked why DD released the way she did. After explaining the concept she agreed with it and has not tried to change...

    What to do?

    Playing the 5th game at 14u ASA on the same field. DD pitched well the first inning but came back and said she was dragging across something metal. It was tearing the toe off her cleats.

    Charged conference?

    Looking for a little clarification on this one. I may be way off but I got this from another umpire earlier this year. My pitcher is struggling and I call time, walk out of the dugout and stop before the first baseline and signal to umpire a pitching change. He nods his head so I walk out and...

    Missed base. No appeal?

    Had this happen this weekend. ASA. Our batter hits a deep fly ball ball that wasn't caught. I'm coaching first base send the runner on. When batter rounded second base I was unsure if she touched it as it wasn't clear from my angle but I certain had my doubts that she did touch it. Ends up with...
