    Buying into Peel vs Roll Over

    My dd loves the peel drop and throws it more than her fb or cu. It was super easy to teach/learn and she started throwing it in games right after learning it.

    10U Stay in the box!

    My dd got hit a few times and started doing that when she moved up to 10u. During practice the coaches would put a bat or a wooden board behind her so she couldn't bail, they also taught her to bunt so that may have helped too.

    The DD and A.D.D.

    Grounded, thanks for pointing out that it may not be an immunity issue but rather a growth issue. That should have occurred to me since my son is already 5'0 at 9 years old. With his ADHD we have seen his pattern, when the excessive talking and can't sit still starts the grades start dropping...

    The DD and A.D.D.

    That is almost the same exact question my son's doctor asked me when I asked about not giving him the meds when he's not in school. I asked that when she said she was going to give him meds, needless to say once he started taking them it made such a wonderful difference at home. I have a nephew...

    The DD and A.D.D.

    I don't really have any advice, but thought I would share our story. My son (9 yo) has ADHD, before he was diagnosed we signed him up for t-ball when he was 6, he didn't even know what was going on half the time, totally spaced. We signed him up for basketball at 8, that was better but still a...

    Easton stealth speed bats

    Totally agree, I got DD a virus that she is loving right now (she's 11) but with as fast as she is growing I'm not sure how much longer she will be swinging it. I got it used & cheap off ebay about a year ago. As for the Xeno's they run heavy, I was looking into those before I picked up the...

    Easton stealth speed bats

    You could always go with a CF5, I have heard that the -11's are really good.

    Just imagine what transporters (like on Star Trek) would do to the Softball world?

    I would love a transporter!! It would make this mom's life so much easier! It's funny b/c my husband & I have joked for years that we wish we could just port to places places, guess that comes from playing so much Everquest & WoW years ago.

    "Hello elbow"

    You're right, hers isn't as bad as a lot of others. I think her video does give a good side view of bringing the arm to/toward her shoulder which gives the OP an idea of what the hello elbow is.

    Competing for scholarships on the field and online

    Our kids know that their grades come first. If they can't keep their grades up, sports are gone. My husband is more strict about their grades than I am, he wants/expects straight A's all the time and I am ok with the occasional B's as long as I know they are studying & trying. So far they are...

    Middle School Tryout – 1st Tryout

    My DD will be trying out for her MS team this year. Their tryouts aren't until October though so we have some time. DD thinks she will make it and I hope she does, I have heard good things about the coach and I want her to play for him.

    Any suggestions in switching from 11 in to 12 in ball.

    That's what we did too, and I used the pitching machine to start the break in for the new glove.
  20. 01mom

    Your advice/suggestions would be appreciated!

    I have a toddler attention span when it comes to reading long posts, so no way was I reading all that so I wasn't commenting on it. I was only commenting on what I quoted from her shorter post.
