    Changing local rec ball leagues- Whats your experience?

    Between basketball and softball my daughter has played on a lot of teams over the years. She's made a lot of friends along the way. A lot more than if she had stayed with her first softball / basketball teams.

    Less than a superstar at teaching pitching

    My daughter is an 8th grader. She had a very good coach who had 30 minute lessons. They worked well for her but they were basically 18 minute lessons if we're being honest. She moved to coach who throws for an hour and the new coach is great. I do think that should be the norm 8th grade...

    U.S.A./USSSA age chart changes

    I hate the Usssa tournaments around us. The 3 inning games are a joke. But... traditionally hasn't birth year been the norm? Usa just recently went to it to school year?

    Drop Dead question

    Sounds like scrimmages. We played in one of these a couple weeks ago, everyone complains every year about this tournament and then they all sign up again to play they same tournament the next year.

    Interference on pop up

    Interesting, I don't know the rules of softball and don't say anything during games. But we had runners on 2nd and 3rd, ground ball to the SS. Runner from second runs over the SS. Interence was called. Girl on 2nd was out, girl on 3rd was called back and the hitter stayed at first. Should...

    Statement from USSSA on age cutoffs

    And again it doesn't really matter it's the same for everyone either way.

    Defacing the Ball

    I guess she could have stuck it someone's ear and accomplished the same thing.

    Defacing the Ball

    It kind of seems like the intent was to get some grip on the ball.

    D3 pitching speed

    Last weekend we watched what I'd would guess would be described as lower mid major D1 game. One pitcher topped out at 55 or 56, I can't remember. Great drop and a change that was underutilized. It was a 2-1 game, the pitcher that threw harder won. She didn't sit 61. I was surprised about...

    Extra Inning Team Rankings

    We are a 2010 team, mostly 2028's. I would be shocked if our coach submitted anything. I also believe he will do a good job with college coaches. It's 8th grade I really don't care.

    Extra Inning Team Rankings

    Ha, I'm sure we're not on anyone's list.

    Extra Inning Team Rankings

    Hopefully we are one of the shitty teams that was over ranked.😂

    Who catches pitching lessons?

    I can see the spin when I'm catching great but sometimes I get caught in between looking at the body position and actually catching the ball. My daughter has had 2 coaches and I have caught for both. She has played with a girl who goes to Canaday's coach and apparently she catches.

    Pitchers With Less Than Perfect Mechanics

    My daughter most likely steps over the line on her screw, she's never been called. She's actually been working on going away from the dramatic angle just so doesn't give away what is coming before she releases the pitch.

    Player Age when 1 grade lower

    There is alway going to be a bias. Whatever date you pick the older girls will benefit.

    First PGF, What to expect.....

    Are you playing in KY @ 3:30 tomorrow? If so you are probably playing one of our local teams.

    Player Age when 1 grade lower

    My daughter hasn't played with a classmate in either basketball or softball in a long time and she's 13. We have one 7th grader on our 2010 team. She'll either practice on her own or sub for 2 months this fall when the girls are playing hs. She'll be fine.

    Mound improvements between innings.

    I watched a hs baseball game tonight, my God was it slower than the softball games that I'm used to watching.

    College has some

    The best girl in our area is going to A&M next year, she'll be fun to watch.

    any thoughts on this?

    I'm sure it's good. We use a power pod for similar spins at home. I follow her, she seems like a very knowledgeable gal.
