    Need help finding a helmet

    My daughter is starting high school and needs an all white helmet for her high school team. I am having trouble finding one because she has such a small head. Her current helmet is a Rip-it S/M which is 6-6 7/8 and it fits perfect. But they do not make an all white helmet. Any help is...

    Cues

    My husband says "Your form looks good" when the ump calls a ball and he thinks it looked like a strike. She is only 10U and this has helped her settle down when she knows the pitch was good and she got a bad call.

    What I want from an umpire

    We had an ump recently that was scared of the ball and would turn her head when the ball was pitched. The only strikes that were called were ones where the batter swung. It was so frustrating, my daughter averages 3 or 4 walks a game and she had 15 walks. It felt like we were back in 8U.

    Coaching All Star game advice

    My husband is going to be coaching one of the All-star teams this Friday. That leaves us very little time to prepare. He is not the head coach on the team but our head coach is sick so he gets to do it. Six of our players will be there along with 6 from another team and 3 from another. It is...

    Questions/Advice on changing teams

    I have wondered if that is a possibility as well. Two girls that we know do this but others have also told me that their teams don't allow it. I guess that will be something that I will have to ask about. Good luck it sounds like we have the same situation.

    Yes, I am planning on researching as much as I can these next two months and see what I come up with. I really want to see some of these teams in action because as absdad said these coaches will be on their best behavior at tryouts. It is overwhelming but I am excited about her looking for a...

    Questions/Advice on changing teams

    My daughter has played on the same rec team for the past four years (2 years 8U and 2 years 10U). About 5 of the players have been together each year and we always get new ones from the draft. It has been a nice group of kids/parents. One of her best friends is on the team so it is going to...

    How did your DD(or you) get involved in Softball?

    When my daughter was 5 I wanted her to play a team sport and I was actually hoping for soccer and she wasn't interested. She said she wanted to play softball so I signed her up with for coach pitch pee-wee ball. (co-ed) Her best friend backed out of joining the team but she decided to play...

    Glove size question

    My daughter is in need of a new glove and I am unsure on what size to get her. She is a second year 10U player and she plays pitcher or 1st base. She currently has an 11inch glove but I wasn't sure if I should move her up a size or not. There is a lot of conflicting advice on the internet...
